Agreed. When we sold our house, we had to disclose any issues. One of those was that there was a “belly” in the sewer line from the house to the street. It was discovered when we had to have part of the line replaced, but decided not to address it because a) it wasn’t causing any problem, and b) the contractor wanted to whack us another $15K to fix it. Our buyer requested a $5K adjustment to the sell price, which we agreed to, as it worked out well for us.
But in your case, the buyer didn’t have to fix it, right? Just took the risk it would be okay?
@teelabrown seems to be saying that the work must be done by someone, whether seller or buyer. As a buyer, I wouldn’t be wiling to take a chance that a repair I’m going to pay for will be on the cheaper side (unless maybe if it was a job I could do myself).
Finally got hired, days, cashier. One day of training. I had to change my second day cause of a dr. Appointment. Now Im unemployed.
Wut?? You got fired because you had a doctor’s appointment? Or am I misreading that?
Because I called off my second day of training. The schedule was given to me the day before.
You didn’t mention and get permission for this anticipated absence when you received the job offer?
New e-mail alert from the Kentucky medical board:
“…during the past decade in Kentucky, syphilis rates have risen 1,650%”.
No. My first day of training I said I might not be able to make it back in time.
So I went to the mall today with my grandmother. Not much of a mall person but what else were we going to do? The place was dead, lots of closed stores… But what I didn’t expect were at least three of the open stores flying aggressive Trump flags. And a bunch of kisosks with pro-Trump propaganda.
What? Is this a thing now? I have to deal with other people’s shitty politics at the mall?
I’ve been in two malls in two days. Haven’t seen any trump-crap in either.
Back when he was prez a few Mom’n’Pop retail stores of whatever nature did a brisk side-biz in trump merch. As soon as I saw the stuff I politely told the cashier I was leaving because of that garbage: your call to tell or not tell the owner he’s running off customers, but he is.
I presume he knows and gets a kick out of it. It just seems really stupid to me. I live in a red county, but he must be losing at least thirty percent of his potential customers.
I cant win. I have to get up early for an interview, and his ex calls, shes married, and he talks for 3 hours.
i fail to see the problem …
I cant sleep if hes on the phone.
Earplugs?
Good luck with the interview.
I realise this is a first world problem even though I live in South Africa, but I need to whine.
Fuck you Über Eats. I want to order food. I live alone since my divorce. I don’t want a two for one special, and while I see the business value in it for you, it means I must go and find a homeless person to give a free meal to to avoid wasting food I will never eat.
The fucking point of Über is home delivery. Either add an option to donate the second meal (or cost thereof) to a homeless shelter or allow me to just choose 1 portion of my choice.
I need to find someone to eat my excess prawn masala with garlic naan? Like fuck am I going to buy your two for one deal because I am not two people.
The interview went well. Do men always insist their way is the only way? Many women tell me that, and it seems to be bourne out.
As you can see from above, I am pretty angry, today is the anniversary of my failed marriage, and I am now divorced. So bear with me.
The answer is “yes”.
We are not all assholes, and most of us try not to be. But we are human and we exhibit the same behaviours as any human, except we males have been socially trained to consider ourselves superior. So, yes. I apologise for my fraternity, not that that will do much good. But there are amongst us men who try to be open and honest and uncritical.
I defer to my wife a lot because I trust her judgment. Plus she can be really stubborn (she’s the first to say that) and on some things it’s easier to just go with it. Some things just aren’t worth it. (Most things aren’t actually.)
Some of us women (like me!) Insist that our way is The True One Way. I’m trying to change, I swear! But it’s hard.
