Author milvushina Posted August 27, 2007 Author Share Posted August 27, 2007 Yes! And tell him that HIS BOSS is now calling YOU about when he's gonna show up to work. It's one thing at home, dealing with him, but now it's involving you at work and that is unfair. Our work community is pretty tightly-knit. The only reason she called me, is because his phone is DEAD... his sim card died. He wasn't happy that his boss called me, either. I told him she just called b/c he had people counting on him. No way we could do a 2nd car, and the only other person in our neighborhood we work with is his supervisor, the one who called me (lol). She gets to work between 9 and 10... she is like the queen of never getting anywhere on damn time. The only way she knew he was late, was that she was getting called by HIS coworkers and no one could reach him. I explained about his card and gave my cell # temporarily. He was supposed to have already done that, but things are pretty disorganized in his office. Sure it's not fair that I have to depend on HIS timeliness, but what is fair hahaha... Anyway I will try what you guys suggested. He just called and asked me not to be mad all day, so I suppose I'll send an email that's a precursor to our talk tonight. And thank you thank you so much everyone, I just needed some pointers. One thing I love about him is how laid back he is; unfortunately that quality does have a dark side. I'm just grateful that I have a bike, and live close enough to do that, if it's needed. Thank you so much again everyone... Link to post Share on other sites
Author milvushina Posted August 28, 2007 Author Share Posted August 28, 2007 Hey while I'm around today I just wanted to say thanks to everyone. It helps so much to bounce ideas before you say anything. I said 1) we need to both be up at least at 7 2) we need to put stuff in a reliable location for easy finding 3) we can't smoke, toke, or wrestle with the dog unless we're up way early. He DID make himself wake up a little earlier, not quite 7. But better so I figured we had time for a bj before work. And he did concentrate on getting ready and not "screwing around." I also noticed he actually hung his keys and hat on the rack so he would not have to search. Aww he hates organization but he really does try. In return I didn't say ANYthing about hurrying. We'll see how long it lasts, but it's great he tried. And he does have a good record of changing his behavior once I make him see it's unfair. So wish me luck. Thanks I don't think it would have gone so well if this forum hadn't helped prepare me. Link to post Share on other sites
