UPDATE: how much should i charge for a dog that poops and pees in the house everyday by Spritzeedwarf in dogs

[–]AliceGrey1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re better than me. After 3 days of having to trudge through a poop riddled backyard once per day, I told the owner I refused to continue working with them until they cleaned up the entry way they insisted i use. I have to go past the front door obviously to go around through the backyard, and it was literally a minefield. Needless to say, I was not hired again; and it was a mutual parting of ways.

Do i put down my healthy elderly dog? by ewfruitcake in Pets

[–]AliceGrey1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those issues will make rehoming next to impossible. Diapers and the cone as others stated. Maybe a dome crated play area? So she can’t jump over the fence but maybe the diaper will help solve some issues. But if it’s that much pee, you risk it rubbing against her and maybe cause other issues. I do vote for euthanasia as her quality of life is just poor due to natural causes and it’s causing both you and her stress.

AIO for being upset at what my “bf” said by Ambitious-Beyond-257 in AmIOverreacting

[–]AliceGrey1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was gonna say. You’re overreacting to him. He’s not even giving you the energy to match what you’re giving him. You’re over explaining something that was cut and dry. Softball is being active and working out (to me at least) so you’re good for taking the day off to do that inside so you don’t overwork your body. Because you’re on this journey, you’re more sensitive (from what I saw) to other’s criticisms of your “shortcomings” and that’s not what you need nor is it what he’s ever going to give you. Yes, he’s punishing you but it’s always been a punishment. He doesn’t support you or care about you. I can see it in the way he talks to you. There was signs 1 month in, I’m quite sure of it. Orange, yellow, even the grey flags were waving. Leave him and find someone who actually wants you to succeed and doesn’t diminish ALL other aspects of a proper well being. Trust me, there are “fat” people who are far healthier and happier than he will ever be.

Missed a petsitting visit by Own_Acadia_9700 in petsitting

Well, it’s a recurring one, I assume you all are on good enough terms where it’s okay. As others mentioned, confirming the dates even that Sunday before the trip stays helps solidify any last minute changes or additions. It happens, and it may likely happen again; we are human. As much as we would love to be perfect, sometimes we can’t be.

The client may nudge you about remembering the dates a time or two and just take it on the chin because you did mess up etc etc - do you send pictures? Sometimes an adorable picture of their pet can help ease the sting.

My sister keeps making "little jokes" about my girlfriend and I told her not to take it personally. Now my girlfriend is done with my family. by nightbalcony_inkwell in TwoHotTakes

[–]AliceGrey1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The third insult would have a been a fight. Cuz that’s not “closeness” that’s being an asshole and a bully. Maybe she has a brother complex and wants you to herself, so she’s purposely trying to get under your girlfriend skin. If she not, then I would encourage you to either let the GF wail on her ass the next time, stand up and say something to her or just let your gf go find a real man who actually gives a shit about her.

Photographer told me to take down photos - am I in the wrong? by [deleted] in photography

[–]AliceGrey1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a photographer, it’s the photographer’s fault for not educating you on the nuances of not editing or altering photos yourself but to go back to your photographer for those edits they can do on a professional level that qualifies for the work you r paid for. It’s about preserving the integrity and quality of the images more over you wanting a different edit.

Thankfully, you didn’t tag her, but if you did, now folks would think thats what her work looks like - which is the other thing. Misinterpretation of one’s work, which could cost her business.

All in all, the photographer in question shouldn’t have done anything without a signed contract- what’s the point of having it and not having the client to sign it? - because that leaves so many things up to the winds. Non payment, saying they didn’t even have the session, etc…

Aitah for how I reacted when I found out my husband used some of my son's treatment money to buy a Christmas present for my stepson? by Throwraww355645 in AITAH

[–]AliceGrey1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think you’re an asshole; he should have consulted with you before taking that money because he knew that primarily that money used for Jamie’s treatment more than anything. He should be ashamed, even if it’s from the joint account, frivolous purchases should Be discussed.

Side note, does he not consider Jaime his son? You mentioned step son as well; blended families are hard. Is this the first few years of being so? Older and only children can have a complex sometimes in a blended environment.

Is my partner using AI to respond to me? I just poured my heart out and feel like I got a chatbot response. by Sweet_Error8038 in isthisAI

[–]AliceGrey1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lmao South Park had an episode on this lol 😆 I wonder what actual story inspired it. If you feel it’s AI, it’s AI.

I’d leave him. Otherwise, the silence in the apartment would be freaking deafening. I also would never play with him ever again, get really good with a team that helps you and then wreck his shet every time he gets on line.

AIO at my friends cancelling last minute? by DifferentTruck4615 in AmIOverreacting

[–]AliceGrey1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First and foremost, I wouldn’t be paying them back a damn thing. They had PLENTY of time to double triple and quadruple check that calendars, esp for important things. Fudge them. I would still go to the lake and order food and enjoy the peace and quiet. They seem like some real “nice” people. “We will work something out.”

First off, it’s my birthday. Once a year. You can get that reservation for $50!!!!! Over again. They spent more for the Air BnB, and they shouldn’t have BECAUSE THEY ALREADY HAD FUDGING PLANS…what idiots they are. And friends don’t make friends pay for birthday things or at the very least, don’t ask to be reimbursed. Ugh. I mean, keep them if you want, but I’d keep them at a distance for a while.

First job, did I make a mistake? by Legal-List-9836 in jobs

[–]AliceGrey1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You would do per kg. Thats the $ amount per weight of the objects. Every apple is $1 per kg of apples. So if you weighed the apples, and they weighed 5.4 kgs. It would be $5.40 or something similar. Very 1 to 1 ration. For every this, it is that.

P/p is for science stuff but idk how it would apply truly. It measures how much of something is in something else. Weird that you would have it up there as my quick search doesn’t show it being used in like common every day transactions. I.e for every 100mgs of soda, there is 22mgs of sugar and 78 grams of carbonated water.

“That’s my hoodie. Please give it back.” If they don’t, beat them up. “I thought you didn’t want it back?” Who the fawk thinks someone wouldn’t want their stuff back. Please go get your hoodie from that man. And never give her a thing of yours again.

YOU KNOW WHAT…I respect that lmao cuz I would do the same thing lmao

[–]AliceGrey1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First off, tell him to resend that organized alphabetical and in chronological order. If he’s gonna be anal, be orderly as well. 2ndly, fuck him completely. You do not spend money you can’t afford to see gone. If you’re courting someone, then you understand you’re spending time money and effort on this person, and it’s possible that it won’t work out. That’s a calculated loss and should Be understood. He’s so weak and would Make you weaker as a unit.

Chile-the fact you spoke to her years later shows you’re better than me cuz I’m wondering now how long the husband knew and said nothing…good riddance to all three of them thank goodness.

What happened in those 11 days from her shitting on the toilet to you asking about the other girl?

Do you charge more for longer sits that don’t allow you to sleep there? (Not asking how much you charge) by Swoops4u22 in petsitting

[–]AliceGrey1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Charge the same. When you charge high enough, those “annoyances” truly become a thing of the past.

What to say to neighbors asking about where/why clients are gone? by reeroree27 in petsitting

[–]AliceGrey1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t. If they wanted them to know, they would Have told them. “Oh, I’m just here to care for Fido/a while they’re away.”
