Good luck, bonny. Steph, it's probably a combination of retired (so lots of free time), intelligent (to find what they're looking for), and enough knowledge to craft an argument but not enough to really know what they're talking about. Plus the sort of personality that doesn't let go when they feel aggrieved.

I dealt with my share of pro se litigants like that.

Hey, do any of us have an imdb pro account.

I'm still trying to reach Paul Meston, who played the Friar in Much Ado About Nothing but the man is virtually invisible on the internet!

I want to pass along the compliment the Shakespeare expert I saw the film with gave him and would rather not by a pro membership to do so.

He's in his late 20s. And, in my experience, super manipulative. After I told him we would not charge him, though we did show up for the appointments he requested, he tried to get me to say that we were a) unreasonable for charging for the walker's time under these circumstances and b) that we really ought to call to remind people like a doctor's office does.

For a $15 appointment? Really?! You can't keep your own calendar?

He also whined that he had just gotten divorced and that life is really hard for him and we should understand that. As a divorced person, I totally understand. As an ADULT, I keep my own calendar, dude.

My favorite part was, "I SAID that I might not be there."

So, we should show up at the time you requested and be cheerful that you let us know you are a flake? Right.

What a dick. The judgement would be a fine price to pay to be rid of his ass.

"Perhaps the young man does not understand the meaning of appointment..."

Gee, I wonder if Buffistas can read my mind telepathically and stuff.

Really, it's too bad he went to the trouble of making the appointment before bailing on it. Much easier on you that way.

How does that even work though, missing a dog walker appointment. Was the dog not home?

Seriously.

Sheesh, I say. SHEESH.

Gee, I wonder if Buffistas can read my mind telepathically and stuff.

I noticed you used italics ....

And the comment of the day (the exception to the "don't read the comments" rule):

It's amazing how much stoopit some folks can fit in just 140 characters.

Oh man. Y'all are on fire today.

Bonnie you really need to start a side business: troublesome customers so that other small businesses can have a heads up
