Nice Try Mr. Not So Neutral

thinkthrice's picture

Instead of focusing on rebuilding Chef's vintage vehicle, Mr. NSN, who is heavily enmeshed with his adult son the Mechanic,  let it slip that Chef's only full-blooded brother (Uncle Kinky) who has been shunning Chef for divorcing the Girhippo, is moving back from the "big city" to his hometown which Uncle K has despised in his youth as being a "hick town."

Seems the big city is now too dangerous for Uncle K to live in with all the Kia Boys break-ins.  It should be noted that until it affected him, Uncle K was very soft on crime.

Too Bad You Burned Your Bridges OSS28

In an earlier blog I mentioned how Pumpkinhead's (OSS28) house looked as though it was abandoned and there was a giant pod storage bin in the driveway.  Well the cat is out of the bag.  Seems like they had a major plumbing leak in the summer and are now reporting that Pumpkinhead's leg broke through the ceiling of their upstairs bedroom down into the kitchen below.

Weird

Had to go to a customer's house today that was on the same street in the same village as Pumpkinhead's house (OSS28).  I had never actually been by his house before... I just knew that he and his now wife purchased it about 3 years ago.

Another Pet Escapes

More like runs for their life from one of Chef's ferals.  This time it is Pumpkinhead  OSD28 and his wife.   Indoor cat made a run for it.  Skids were always mean to animals and neglectful.   The Girhippo would give animals back to the shelter for jumping up on people at the drop of a hat.  Pet ownership was never taken seriously. 

SD26 had MANY  cats that ran away from her.  Frankly some people should NEVER have animals.   Chef's ferals should all be banned from having them. 

The Backslide

Well that didn't last long.  Chef has gone creeping back to the supplier that has the accounting system from hell even though the sales person he deals with openly admitted that he almost quit due to the chaos over there.

I'm also convinced this supplier is double charging us so I will be looking at my books come January 8th.  

Until they make more successive mistakes that affect Chef, he refuses to leave them and wants to give them endless chances.  Something I don't get the luxury of.   

O/T Miracles DO Happen!

As you may know, Chef and I have a business together (sadly).  Anyway Chef, about couple years ago, grew very tired of a local supply house because the new manager was horrid and many mistakes were made.

I liked the old supplier because they just took a credit card as a point of sale instead of getting a statement at the end of the month and so many days to pay Etc plus they gave gift cards to a local grocery store.

Well THAT Was Interesting

I attended my mother's memorial service via Zoom.   She and my father has a lot of out of state and Canadian friends and family joining the zoom meeting but the service itself was held by the cult.   I am persona non grata in the cult as I wrote a letter 20 years ago saying it's not for me.   They are required to shun me except for immediate family that has earth-shattering news.   Other than that nada.

Keeping Ferals Out of The Goodies

So there has been threads on this before.  I am sure it has been discussed on the forums as well.   What are your methods to keep feral skids ransacking household goods like a plague of locusts?  What are your cost cutting ideas?

Some choose the hiding method such as hiding in the veg bin as skids are naturally averse to anything that grows from the ground and that requires picking.
