I have a motor down in south wales..it needs to come here..due to the on going impossibility of sorting out animal care that all falls together..ie kennels avilable at same time as care for horses/goats ferrets etc...I dropped a request on here for help, offering all expenses paid plus return journeys paid etc...4 people kindly contacted me and offered help...
The time came to collect the motor so I contacted the people who offered...
One didn't even acknowledge the two memos I sent, one spoke to me on the phone at lenth..and now won't answer either phone or memos...2 have vanished into the woodwork..
Now I appreciate that things change, that they might not want too, might be too busy, can't be bothered, have work/family commitments or many other reasons.
But why the hell can't they SAY so..?why not be honest and just say sorry Korri, its not possible...instead of leaving me running round like a headless chicken trying to figure out what to do next to sort this out.. I'm used to being dropped in the shit but this has left me up to my neck in it... All I expected was honesty, is that TOO much to ask...
A very pissed off and exasperated Korri
[oh and before you all start, about asking the earth, they contacted me and offered..and in return I offered to pay my way..I wasn't asking anything for free..gawdamnit !]

That's just plain rude and serious bad manners. I'm so sorry to hear you've been left in the lurch with so much to organise. I hope they all read this post and search their own concience and realise how childish and rude their behaviour is. As you say, people's circumstances change but what does answering a memo cost? What does one little phone call cost? I wish I could help. If I weren't beginning back at work (been off 3 months after a bad bipolar episode) I'd have offered to help you but my stress and anxiety levels are a little high right now. Best of luck sorting it all. | |

Could there be the eensy weensiest of chances that you may have had something to do with their reluctance to help out? Losing one helper is unfortunate, but losing four seems to a bit more than coincidental. Science, the only religion that works even if you don't believe in it. | |

If there is any chance it might be my fault then I apologise for what ever it was I did wrong..if you know what it was please let me know and I'll do my best to put it right.. And if it was my fault? couldn't they have told me what Id done wrong..and give me chance/time to correct it? Im not perfect Lady only knows Im not !

Relying on strangers to do things is fraught with problems... better to ask friends/family or arrange for the company sorting your car to do it for you | |

Aww dammit! And I was hoping to find a lift from someone from Leicester area to Gloucester way ... You just jaded my life view! Glad you found one good soul in the pile though. |
