Why is it that you can't treat most people nicely with out having to pay for it later on...i always thought that if you did nice things for people that not only would they appreciate it, but that nice things would come back to you...instead what i seem to get is i do nice things for people, mostly ones who are supposed to be my friends and they not only act like it is their due, but then stick it in and break it off when i get tired of being used
Case in point...i had(notice the past tense here) what i thought were some friends who came to me for help....more than once....after all they were good(so i thought, boy was i ever wrong here) friends...i even married them(i am a minister of the ULC) in my living room....so when they needed a place to live(i had an extra room at the time) for a few months i said sure....they were after all both employed(at the time) and were going to pay their share of the bills...they were a bit short of cash and would only pay me half the rent up front and the rest later in the month...seems like a good deal all the way around...i get the empty room filled and save a bit on bills, my supposed friends get a place to live till they can find a house to rent, everyone is happy right??? HELL NO
So what really happens here is this...first they are both unemployed before the end of the second week...they are both adult....he is over 30 she is in her mid 20s...well these lazy fucks dont look for work for quite a while...it only takes her about another 5 or 6 weeks to find a job as a waitress a block away...he meanwhile is supposedly doing work building web pages(which seems to mostly consist of using my computer and then not returning it the way it was(screen resolution off...etc)) and bitching about how the customers want changes all the time....this web work however does not seem to involve getting paid and i guess a real job is out of the question...well i make ok money, but i sure dont make enough to support myself and two lazy ass adults...i am finally forced to ask for some rent money(hating to be in this position) and get this attitude like i am out of line...you know it isnt like im asking for all of their money...im telling them to make sure they keep enough for food gas and smokes, but they act like i am being some sort of asshole by expecting them to pay their own way...now he does give me rides to work sometimes(i pay for gas mind you), but i dont think it is asking much really all things considered...i also by then have found out that their idea of married bliss is to fight constantly and i am feeling like i am 15 years in the past reliving most of the worst aspects of my first marriage...fun fun fun....of course it gets worse...although they dont seem to have money for bills they always have money for beer and pot...this pisses me off, but i cant get myself to say anything for a long time....finally i do get fed up and let them know that they must get caught up on the bills or vacate by the end of the month(3 weeks away)...so they decide they are gonna move out...well they kind of start movin at odd hours, and worst of all only take the stuff they need right away, so now i have this room full of their leftovers and a bunch of trash(two full large hefty bags worth no less) and the floor looks like world war three had been held in there...of course this is far from over....they now are either telling people that they moved to get privacy or that i threw them out for no reason...well i get someone to take their old room...she cleans up the two bags of trash and packs up 5 boxes and three suitcases of their shit and stacks it neatly in the dining area where it sits for three months...i finally get tired of playing storage(unpaid of course) and when after they call the cops on me(another fun story) i toss the last box of their shit in the dumpster and of course i am once again an asshole for throwing away their valuable papers(if they were so valuable then why did they sit there for months)...so im thinking well this is all over...am i right hell no...they decide they must have revenge for all the mistreatment(??????) i heaped on them and have been spending the last 6 months or so on a smear campaign alternating this with occasionally slashing the tires on my and my roomates cars....what a great world we live in eh
Now don't worry kids, because despite this and many other examples of extending my hand in friendship only to have it spit in, I am still the same(maybe a bit sadder) nice guy as I was before i had the misfotune to meet these two...so if i see you needin my help it will probably still be there for ya
