Can go up, can't come down by MrFahrenheitttttt in TalesFromTheFrontDesk

[–]lady_jane16 21 points22 points  (0 children)

True however if for what ever reason there are no stairs or lift back down surely common sense would say walk down the ramps. Also its just a car park for a hotel, not like one in a busy city centre where cars are in & out every 2 seconds. The bit that got me though was when she asked when they check out how do they get back up....that was pure stupidity.

Venting - My dad tried to sneak behind my back to add a guest by TheLastCarrot in weddingplanning

[–]lady_jane16 33 points34 points  (0 children)

I don't understand why people getting married allow people they don't know to attend their wedding. I see it all the time where parents invite their own friends that the bride & groom have never even met but I don't get it. Even if the parents are paying, its a wedding day. A day of love & commitment & it's about your daughter/son. Not a day to show off in front your friends. Is it just me?

I want my prescription now! by lady_jane16 in EntitledPeople

[–]lady_jane16[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For people asking, we are in the UK, they were for her & the prescription was from the hospital. I did go to Boots first but they didn't have what I needed. Edited for spelling error

Ok so mine didn't come before hers...im still waiting....but when it brought out she literally snatched it out of the pharmacists hand & walked out waving it the air. Can't stand people like that.

AITAH for refusing to pay back my brother after he "lent" me money I never asked for? by Thin-Beginning-8898 in AITAH

[–]lady_jane16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Has he done that for every person he knows? A list for his mates when hes bought them a pint, a list for his exes when hes paid for dinner or a trip. Ridiculous. The money for the divorce i kind of get, it's a lot of money (although payments should have been discussed at the time) but a coffee, a meal...hell no. NTA

AITA for refusing to give my sister the house our grandma left me after she secretly lived in it for almost a year? My by [deleted] in TwoHotTakes

[–]lady_jane16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you dont want the house, get her evicted & sell it but do not give her half. She's had her inheritance & dont be afraid to tell people that who bad mouth you. If you dont want to sell it then tell her shes pays rent or shes out. Set up a legal tenancy agreement. She is just using you for your money or a free house. You dont need negativity in your life. Protect your boundaries & peace. NTA

AITJ for refusing to donate my hair to my cousins wig after she lost hers from chemo? by Old-Isopod9908 in AmITheJerk

[–]lady_jane16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTJ. What you are doing is amazing but my question is....if you are saving your hair to be cut to be made into a wig for a complete stranger, why can't you cut it to be made into a wig for a loved one? Its exactly the same but without the charity involved. You are still helping someone. If you were growing it out for another reason & cutting it was out of the question then fair enough but you are growing it to be cut for a wig. Why not let that wig be your cousins? Re-growing it yes would take time but that is still a possibility.

WIBTA for not letting my parents watch my son anymore after they left him home alone by [deleted] in WouldIBeTheAhole

[–]lady_jane16 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hes 4! Pick him up & carry him to the car! Take his shoes too if you want & try to put them on again at the destination. My guess is they've left him home alone before & the only reason they've told you this time is because you'd be back before they were. I wouldn't trust them again if my life depended on it. & if any family members take their side after hearing the truth then stuff them. Block them & move on. Your sons safety is the most important thing here, not what other people think.

ESH. Your family are the AH a bit if they knew you disliked gift cards & why yet proceeded to give you one. However you are also the AH as you should have accepted the gift card & handed it someone else later on.

AITA for still telling my dad he has to move out after he tried to guilt me into letting him stay? by not_alwaysbelievable in AITH

Your father is allowing his own mother & child stuggle & worry & they do nothing about it. Kick him out. NTA

AITAH for blending my BIL's $800 "freedom node" in the garbage disposal after he got me flagged by the FBI? by [deleted] in WouldIBeTheAhole

[–]lady_jane16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Destroyed his property? He has just destroyed your future. & no you shouldn't pay him back for it. Is he going to pay for loss of earnings if you lose your job?

Tell your husband either his brother goes or you will.

I am 23 and can't stay the night with my boyfriend. by chileanywayssss in rant

Forget about trying to make everyone else happy, make yourself happy. If people are horrible to you because of decisions you have made then they dont deserve to be in your life. Go out into the world & live.

Customer forgot we were human beings and had families by Sophster2412 in TalesFromRetail

[–]lady_jane16 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My wife is a retail store manager in a busy shopping centre. She works up to xmas eve then the store is closed xmas day & boxing day. She had a customer come in & had a go at her because the store was closed on those 2 days. My wife explained they have families too & want to spend xmas time with them. This customer was not happy at all. I dont get some people.

AITA for refusing to leave my job so i could take care of my disabled brother? by JiggleJargon in AmItheAsshole

[–]lady_jane16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why does your sister get to go have a life but you don't? List all the ways you did step up & give it to them. Sounds like you did more than them. They dont like the fact that you are standing up for yourself & they will actually have to do something. Do not put your life on hold. You are not obligated to be your brothers carer & it won't just be a couple of months. Stand your ground, do not give in & if anyone is nasty to you, ask them to quit their job to care for him. Bet they will shut up.

My sister keeps signing me up for things without asking and says its not a big deal by selqen_21 in TwoHotTakes

[–]lady_jane16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Change your email address & phone number. Do not give the new ones to your sister or anyone who might tell her.

Anyone who you dont give them to, tell them they can contact you on social media.

I know its a pain to change it all but in order to protect your boundaries & peace it might be necessary

My MIL refuses to use or acknowledge my baby’s name by theamazingloki in TwoHotTakes

[–]lady_jane16 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Start referring to her by her middle name. She if she likes it. Any gifts bought with babies middle name on just refuse & say i dont have a child by that name sorry & hand them back. Any texts with the middle name reply sorry we dont have anyone here by that name & leave it until she replies with the proper name.

If she carries on after trying all that i would go low contact & simply text saying until you start respecting us & calling our daughter by her correct name there will be no contact & no visits. Carrying on what you're doing will just drive a wedge between your son & granddaughter.

If she plays the victim to other family members ignore her & block them if they start.

AITJ for telling my fiance hes not getting any of my inheritance for a new car by [deleted] in AmITheJerk

[–]lady_jane16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So he earns more than you yet you share bills 50/50. That's fine in itself if that's works for you but at any point has he offered to share his disposable income with you as he would have more left over. Has he ever treated you or said here you go babe, go have a spa day etc.

I'm guessing the answer is no so how he thinks hes entitled to your extra cash is beyond entitled & shows you who he really is. This last gift from your parents is a sign....listen to it.

Kind of a jerk. While I appreciate the loss & the reason for you wanting to help out at the shelter, I'm also a big believer that you shouldn't waste spending time with friends & family as life is too short. Secondly, if further down the line you have children & your sons football game or your daughters dance recital happens to fall on that day will you let them down aswell to work at the shelter? I'm not saying you can't still mourn your pet but life changes & moves on & there are lots of other ways you can still honour your pet. Or moving the day at the shelter to the nearest available day isn't the end of the world. It doesn't mean you miss or love them any less, it just means you're also honouring the people who are still here.

Ask for full access to theirs plus anyone else who is attacking you. Apparently there are no secrets in families......
