Rocket Man's 02 Denali Build Thread AKA "THE BEAST"

[Rocket Man]

I don’t give a ****...


Lemme edit that:
If you’re that close to me ..... back the **** up.... Covid or not

It’s myself that I can’t stand when I don’t wear any. Drives me nuts. Seems I don’t like the smell of my own stink, and it also seems that no matter where the **** I go, there I am. Sucks.

So I have a non-vehicle question I’d like to throw at you guys. My daughter, long story, lives with me. She has always been full of drive and is a nurses assistant who also is going to school to be a practical nurse. Her loser boyfriend has zero drive and was an assistant manager at a movie theater until Covid. He’s been unemployed for 7 months, waiting for his minimum wage job to open up. I let him move in rent free 8 months ago. So we have both been home for months. I am thinking about retiring. Anyway...the dude has a bunch of obnoxious habits. One is he mumbles to my daughter when we are in the same room. She can be right next to him and has to ask “what” over and over. I have asked him to speak up. He says he doesn’t know if he can. He leaves dishes in the sink. Same thing, he says he will try. Still does it occasionally. Leaves empty drink containers around. Same thing. He has always played PS3 with headphones on but he does it in the living room, I’m in the Great Room and rarely ever heard him. But after my last conversation with him about the fact this is my house and he should be considerate of whether he’s doing shit that would bother me, it seems like he has decided to start talking louder and walking around the house while playing and talking, like I’m not even here. So today I told him there will be nobody talking on headphones in the house unless they’re behind closed doors. He got pissy, said he couldn’t talk to his team mate unless he did do I told him he would have to do it in the bedroom. Then I tried to explain to him that he is living in my house and that after our last convo he should be trying to not be obnoxious to the me since it’s my house. He told me he didn’t know why I was still talking so I told him he needed to move out. Dude just totally pisses me off on a daily basis and doesn’t seem to respect me or the fact he’s saving $1500 a month. Which btw he only makes $900 in unemployment. He’s gonna move in with his parents who btw charge him rent. Am I wrong to want him out?

No.

I think you have been more than accommodating and have every right to set certain guidelines for how things go in your house.

You are not wrong to want him out. I would have expectations that would need to be met. I would lay them out without negotiation. It may be necessary to have a separate talk with your daughter first. After laying the rules out I would treat him as if her were 14 and make him come and clean up his dishes, wipe the piss off the bathroom floor and stfu when playing his kiddieo games.

Oops! I got pissed off with you! You see, I have an actual 13 year old at home....

Absolutely not! You put up with it alot longer then I would've. Comes down to--it's your house, and if he doesn't like it, he can get the FU$@ OUT!! Hopefully tho, your daughter isn't too mad at the situation. Did she try talking to him about things? If so, and he still didn't clean up his act--FU$@ HIM! Just my personal opinion tho.

We had the conversations 2 weeks ago, with my daughter separately and with both of them. They both made it out to seem like everything he did bothered me, so I laid out 4 things. 4 things. This wasn’t one of them. At that time, he was being kinda quiet when he was playing games, sitting close to the tv in the other room, talking quietly. I never really heard him. Of the other 4 things, he still did 2 of those regularly and then lately he started walking around talking loud on his headphones- in the kitchen making his lunch, etc. Like he didn’t give a shit if it bothered me but anybody with half a brain would know it’s obnoxious. Then today when I was trying to explain to him about our last conversation and how I talked about trying to be considerate of things he does that would probably get on my nerves, he told me “ I don’t know why you’re still talking” all disrespectful like, like I should just shut up and walk away. So, in case you guys missed it in my other post, I told him it’s time for him to move out. It’s a done deal. I just talked to my daughter and she understands that I just can’t live with him. It’s been coming for awhile. I just feel bad. I only let him move in because I wanted her to be happy. I tried for 8 months. Can’t do it and keep my sanity.

Nope! Shoulda been out 8 months ago!

Sorry Mark, tough situation with you daughter but it’s your house, your rules. Just like my father told me, you don’t like it, there’s the door, don’t let it hit you on the ass on the way out.

Hell no! You've been more than patient. Someone in his position should be kissing your ass if they had nothing else to offer. Cleaning up after themselves is mandatory, and they should feel obligated to help with general house duties. Neither of those cost anything but time and personal effort so being unemployed isn't an excuse. How is he gonna take care of your daughter if things progress to that level? Boot his ass and, although I'm sure you've already initiated this, help your daughter to realize she deserves better. She'll be a little bummed at first, but I'm sure she'll thank you later. I have no doubt that you've done a better job with her than that.



...I just hope he doesn't mess with your trucks in retaliation.

 

[Doubeleive]

nope, adios.... you want to know what I would do? well I will tell you anyway lol, every thing that belonged to him would be packed up in boxes by the front door, I have done it before, it's rather relaxing after that. Don't feel bad, sometimes people need a dose of reality.
