I've mentioned my homecare cleaning lady once or twice and how she comes here and rants and rants about her job etc.
Well, today she was here and again, no different! I've had a headache going on all day and my pain meds aren't helping. Despite my telling her that I have a headache and am not feeling very well (nausea, migraine aura etc), she just went on and on!
Her rants:
1. Having told her office prior to Canadian Thanksgiving a few weeks ago that one of her client's who was scheduled to have cleaning on Canadian Thanksgiving,requested cleaning service another day that week as Thanksgiving was a holiday. And how she showed up at the woman's house 2 weeks later for her next appointment time only to have the woman ream her out for showing up.
Apparently instead of the office sending someone the week of Thanksgiving, they sent someone 12 days later. Apparently the woman called the office and told them that she sent the girl away because someone was there just a few days before, and because she also found the girl "too negative".
2. About her alcoholic boyfriend who never takes her anywhere or buys her anything and all they do is spend the entire weekend at his house where she knits and he drinks and how she knows the relationship won't ever be any different because while he has acknowledged being an alcoholic he has no desire to stop drinking because he enjoys it.
Then she goes on and on about all of these dating sites that she's a member of and how she has been talking to about a half dozen men. She mentioned that one guy in Halifax has a webcam and that when she talks to him using MSN he turns it on so she can see him and how neat that is! She doesn't have a webcam though.
Then she tells me that some guy in Ontario that she talks to also has a webcam and has told her that he would buy her one and send it to her. Then she adds "You know why he wants to send me one don't you?!" I said "You do that?!" and she said "No. But if he wants to send me a free camera, why shouldn't I take it?" I told her outright that I think it's horrible to take advantage of someone for monetary gain and that if she isn't interested in the guy that she shouldn't be taking a camera from him. She said "Well, if he's stupid enough to send me a camera, why shouldn't I take it?"
She went on about other things and I just tuned her out because my head just couldn't take it anymore
