After I paid to bail my nephew's girlfriend out of jail, my niece just called and asked when Girlfriend pays me back if SHE could borrow that money until they get their stimulus check in July. *sigh*
OMTFG Cash.
So I put in the complaint about my a/c still not working. Was told it was going to be fixed today. Was offered a cat (manager traps the young ferals and rehomes them) and was told I've lost a lot of weight.
Was this all in the same conversation?
If only customer service representatives were empowered to give away free cats to disgruntled customers, the world would be a different place....

I think my answer would be "No."
These people need to stop calling me before my coffee, for fuck's sake.
With this modifier, my answer would be "FUCK no. Now please either forget my phone number or spontaneously combust. I'm not picky about which one."

Especially if they could choose the velocity at which said cats were delivered.

Maybe we should stop calling you "Cash" because I think it is sending the wrong message.
I had to tell my DH in no uncertain terms before we were married that we were never, ever going to loan anyone in his family money. If they have enough money to go gambling, they absolutely can't have the money I've saved.
I'm hoping that with the end of the primary that trope goes away. At least on the Dem side - I don't expect anything better from the right, so it doesn't ping me as much. But coming from the left it's fucking appalling, and a reminder that our own house isn't exactly in order the way we might like to think.
I hope so, too, but I'm astonished at the rage towards Obama that I'm seeing from some Hillary supporters. I don't get it. But you're right -- it could utterly rip the party apart, which would make things wide open for McCain.
I really want the pundits to just call it what it is, and say that they think Obama can't take the redneck/racist/Klan "working-class" vote.
yeah, that'll be the day. It'll be the same day that they speak angrily about welfare families and show a picture of a white family.
Yeah, I know. I can dream, right?
Cashmere, can you offer the money in the form of lifeskills/budgetting classes instead? By which I mean, good lord. Bless you and your dealing with family. Am so thankful my family is easy in many many ways.

Didn't you say that you thought that nephew's GF won't pay you back?
Yeah, actually Cash, I'd say yes to that. The chances of you getting the money back at all aren't great - this way the official debt to you is on the shoulders of someone who
might
feel more of an obligation to do something about it.
