When I was younger and living with my parents, I’d stay home from my college classes when something needed to get done. If the cable was being installed, I stayed home. If a phone line was being put in, I stayed home. I even stayed home for a Residential Deck Staining. So when I moved out and got my own apartment deeper in the city, I expected one of my parents to stay there while I got my cable or phone line put in while I was at work. Unfortunately they did not see it the way I did, so they never came to wait while I was working . They both claimed they didn’t have the time. When I was younger, I really didn’t have the time. I missed out on a lot of important notes I could have been taking during my college classes. I once had to miss a test because the plumber was coming that day for a pipe that had broken . In that case I did reschedule the test but it wasn’t like I could study while the plumbers were there, my mother is very possessive of her things and didn’t want strangers around them, as they might feel the urge to take her antique glass elephant . My main point is I went out of my way to help them and they don’t do the same for me when I need it. It’s not like they gave birth to me and put up with my sorry butt for twenty three years of my life for free while I free loaded in their house during my college years, I must say that I am a sorry excuse for a son and very ungrateful for all that was given to me .
