Very good questions JZ.
It turns out that it isn't even the asshats that are being dishonorable.
The wifeof the co-owning team...the one who take Bartleby out in the morning for godsake...had some hysterical fit about 'what if something happens!' between closing on the house and emptying it (which would have been very, very easy to do in June simply by not taking any more reservations. Which would have meant disappointing about 20 people as opposed to the now required 130 people.)
What if something happens?
The house has been open, incident free, for 30 f'ing years. Plus, isn't that what insurance (that they already have in spades) is for?
I'm frankly bewildered. And hurt. And thinking there is not enough money in the world they can pay me to make those hundreds of phone calls and bear all that disappointment.
Frack.

Given her mindset, it was probably something like "One of our loyal employees/clients, whom we're shafting by selling out to nutbars, might take revenge on us."
Oh Connie. Bless your heart. You actually made me laugh. Quite a feat at the moment.
New tags for Aims, Raquel, Laura, and Beej.
{{Beej}}
Revelation indicates that the antichrist will be European or possibly an apostate Jew.
Oh, so not Spongebob Squarepants then?
Gronk. I miss you guys. I plan on doing nothing but lounging in front of the computer for a few hours. I think I need a laptop.
{{{Beej}}} I'm so sorry.
Windsparrow's new tag is taken from something JZ said to, I believe, P-C, about his thesis writing. For those keeping track at home.
I love Connie's descriptions, they bring to mind such lovely visuals.
Timelies. A wee bit of insomnia last night and I can't seem to get functional fast enough this morning. Stupid insomnia.
{{{Deena}}} Sorry about the insomnia. I hope you can get a nap in today.

Oh, thanks, Deena! I think I did already announce it. Almost certainly, since I was probably there at the time.
My cable went out last night--and I have cable Internet. They didn't get it fixed until about an hour ago. My computer felt so dead and useless when it wasn't connected to the Internet.
Thanks, sj. A nap would be nice. We'll have to see how the evil babies behave. They've been a little lively today.
