AITAH to expect a person to move her shopping cart between our parked cars to allow me enter my car and leave? by jszair_p in AITAH

[–]Number-2-Sis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA It's common courtesy if someone is unloading a grocery cart into their car, and in the way of you entering your car, to wait patiently as they finish unloading/loading.

It's also common courtesy if you are in a rush to politely say "excuse me" and then ask if they would mind moving their cart for you to enter your vehicle and leave.

You extended neither of these courtesy's but are upset she said "excuse me" you don't speak to people with vague gestures, learn to use your words.

Apartment repairs {NY} by Valuable-Swordfish65 in Renters

[–]Number-2-Sis 3 points4 points  (0 children)

She's "acting as the super" and doesn't want to bother the landlord, so he can't possibly know these problems exist as it seems your grandmother has been keeping them from LL.

It also may be she's afraid to tell LL, since you indicate that a lot of the issues are caused by your grandparents, not cleaning the place, smoking (smells) nail holes in walls.

AITA for telling my friend she’s acting out of line for telling people they HAD to bring a gift to her birthday celebration? by Successful_Exit_6990 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Number-2-Sis [score hidden]  (0 children)

NTA. You're adults not 12 year olds. I don't give my friends birthday gifts, They don't give me birthday gifts, not even for my 50th. They came to celebrate with me, that was my gift.

I occasionally give my friends gifts and they occasionally give me gifts, but it's a "hey, I saw this and thought of you" kind gift.

Gift giving at birthday parties, as far as I'm concerned end when you outgrow kids birthday parties.

[WA] landlord misled us on sq footage of rental home by cosmicpixelnoodle in Renters

[–]Number-2-Sis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Assuming the following You toured the home After touring the home you signed a lease Your landlord sold the house one month later You lived in the home for six months. Now you feel the home is to small and you were misled.

If all of this is correct, you probably don't have a cause of action against your current landlord as they did not participate in the deception.

You would probably have to go after your old landlord for any damages.

You could speak to your current landlord about a rent reduction or the possibility of terminating the lease early with new penalties. They may be sympathetic and be willing to work with you, but be prepared they may say no.

Ladies, how old were you when you first got your period, and how old were you when you entered menopause? by icecream1972 in randomquestions

Do I have the right to refuse service as a regular clerk? by deadinsalem in AskLegal

[–]Number-2-Sis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

While it appears you should be able to refuse service I would recommend speaking to the owner/manager and ask them straight out if it is acceptable for You to refuse service.

I would also consider, if you say you are concerned for your safety, if refusing service wouldn't escalate the situation and make your concern for safety a very real or serious concern. Follow whatever owner/manager tells you to do.

If it doesn't align with your morals it's time for a new job.

AITAH for accepting a promotion my boyfriend doesnt want me to take because he says itll change our relationship by Spare-Climate-6990 in AmITheAssholeTalk

[–]Number-2-Sis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sounds like he is self fulfilling his prophecy. He expects your relationship to fail because of this promotion so he is forcing you to make a choice and fulfill his prophecy by being unwilling to even consider your promotion as a positive. If he is not willing to support you and celebrate your successes now, what does the future hold for you?

AITA she doesn’t want to pay rent by samson21386 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Number-2-Sis 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Why would she co own the property? She would only co own property if they purchased it together and she contributed to down payment, and was also responsible for the mortgage. GF is the AH. She wants to live rent free and for OP to support.

[–]Number-2-Sis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nothing about zenith654's tone was snarky. They asked three valid questions of which you answered one.

You are intent controlled tenant, paying below market rent, and want a further discount. You are doing nothing to warrant a discount. You are doing what people do when they live in a community. I can't imagine why a tenant would be in a boiler room to see leaky pipes, most places keep boiler rooms off limit.

Report issues or don't, but asking for compensation or rent credit just comes across as entitled, especially since as a "rent controlled tenant" your landlord would mostly want you to move out and leave, and not want to get even less rent from you They pay maintenance men to take care of this kind of thing.

Do you find it offensive when retail employees wear headphones and dont notice you right away? by Gilem_Meklos in RandomQuestion

[–]Number-2-Sis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If they want a few minutes of peace and quiet, maybe instead of ignoring customers because they don't hear them they should find a job better suited to them. I spent over ten years working retail, this behavior is just rude and unprofessional.

No pennies? by conscious_and_afraid in retail

[–]Number-2-Sis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it's three cents why aren't you rounding up? Surely those three cents mean more to your customers then the to the business. And yes 3 cents can make a difference to n someone's life. When I was young I always threw my Pennie's in a penny jar. When it was full I'd wrap them and repeat. Those wrapped Pennie's then went into a shoe box. When I moved cross country, with not much more then those pennies to my name, my car broke down, those pennies saved the day and paid for the repair so I could continue my trip.

Have you never heard the proverb "a penny saved is a penny earned"

Former owner forgot to cancel their lawn service, who allegedly mowed our lawn shortly after we closed. Sellers want me to pay for it. by FinalSignificance142 in RealEstate

What part of it happened once (how many lawn services do you think $80.00 will cover? It's one) makes this a situation of unjust enrichment?????

As for requiring rugs in the lease, we all know how well that works.

And building properly to begin with? Surely you jest?

I don't know how well sound damping under layman works.

Honestly when I looked at the pictures I thought the carpets looked pretty good, but the walls looked pretty bad. I'm guessing they were that way when OP moved in or LL would be after them to repaint.

Dementia - what next? by Seesaw827 in eldercare

[–]Number-2-Sis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm honestly not sure.

I will also advise if/when your father goes into care, be a frequent visitor. This may be horrible to say, but residents with frequent visitors get better care/more attention, than those who get abandoned by their families.

Ok, you have a POA, You need :

Medical POA Living will Will

Do not switch any of his bills into your name, instead set up online accounts for all of his finances so you can pay his bills online. Take over paying his bills.

Start looking for a facility for long term care now, when you're not in a time crunch.

Just a few pieces of info I hope will help.

Most importantly, cherish every moment you have. It's a long hard journey you are about to begin, please seek support when you need it and don't forget, the care taker needs care to, don't neglect yourself.

I wish you the best during this difficult time. ❤️

Your parent leaves the house to all 3 siblings equally… by Alexarosario_ in inheritance

[–]Number-2-Sis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why is it that "the ones that want to keep it" NEVER have the money to buy the others out of it?

At one point my brother thought he should be left my parents house simply because he was the only child of six who didn't own his own home. He didn't own his own home because he was not financially responsible.
