    This is why I will help out very few people

    So the fire here displaced a few thousand, one being someone my mom shares a carpool with on daily basis. She decided to let him stay over at her house since he knows very few or whatever.

    Apparently it's been a nightmare with his dogs barking and him not doing anything about it, the overall sloppy and lazy style he's displayed as a guest in someone's house; food crumbs on the island, leaving full cups of soda on window sills around the house or even in the bathroom, leaving the dog bag of poop on the deck because he didn't know where the trashcan was yet he never bothered to ask, not offering to either help cook or split whatever the dinner costs would be. He has an iphone, needed to charge it so he asks my mom to go get hers so she asked him if he forgot his, his answer was that no, he just didnt want to get up.

    Today apparently there was a county announcement that certain areas were being let back into their homes. My mom asked him in an email if this included him and quoted the exact, specific directions that was included in the announcement only to get a reply of "dont know". He was too lazy to read it, he's known for having others deal with his problems and being a bystander because thats what grown 12 year olds do.

    Fast forward to this evening. He gets here, dogs barking and all that fun jazz, and gets asked if he was planning on going home or seeing if the evacuation was lifted in his area only to reply with some sort of no/not interested in it since he would actually have to do something. There was some argument after between him and my dad while my mom is in California to pick up my niece to bring here for a few days. Well this guy apparently stormed out of the house, called my mom to inform her that she's crazy, horrible, and some other choice words for "putting him into this situation"..... Ya, makes no sense at all but I guess it does for a raging lunatic.

    And that is why I will not help out others outside of my small network of friends and family, way too many unfit people in the head.

    Yeah..........good thing your dad is still around. Because if he wasn't and your mom was single, something tells me he would still be there come Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years.

        One of the lessons that I learned while managed a retail store.... You give someone an inch and they will take a mile

        Personally, I think your mom and dad have done enough. Hell, my parents aren't dog people and they would never let me bring my dogs home with me. Not even when we have hurricanes. I either have to board them and go home or ride the store out.

        At this point, I'd tell him that if he wants to continue to stay there he's going to have to board the dogs as well as help out around the house. If his attitude got worse after that I'd tell him to leave. If he didn't, I'd call the cops.

          Oh he's gone, the rest of his stuff is in a trashbag apparently waiting for pick up. Got my mom saving all the harassing voicemails and texts just in case its needed

            Crazy stuff. Some people will try and walk right over you if you give them the opportunity. I tell my students all the time....don't mistake my kindness for weakness. You keep pushing and i'll push back.

                I always try to stay as positive as possible...but dang, with some people in this world it can be tough at times.

                "Do un to others...but don't you dare do the same thing to me." Seems to be the way some people out there live their lives. Anyway...glad to hear this knucklehead is gone.

                      Some people need to learn manners and general common sense. I mean your mother didn't HAVE to bring him into the house at all. I wonder if he'd still be on the street looking for a place to stay if your mother hadn't been so kind. I'm a pretty kindhearted person but if you're going to push the envelope then expect to be pushed back.

                      I'd have kicked him out the moment he showed that he was trying to take advantage of the situation.

                        Actually it's kind of amazing that this guy even owned a house before. His behavior is that of someone who lives with their parents, and relies on them to do everything for them.

                          Funny update: 2 days later and his container with dog food is still outside on the front porch along with some other bag of his. I texted my mom earlier today saying that he probably expects her to bring it to the carpool location on Monday, since thats the type of person he is.

                            Just put it all on corner next to trash on trash day and tell him to come get it or it goes out with trash.

                              Obviously not a Canadian.

                              We'd make your bed, walk the dogs, do the laundry, do the dishes, cut the grass, AND have a nice hot cup of Timmy's waiting for you when you wake up.
