Reply #3: And If He'd Taken It Upon Himself To Make Those judgment Calls For You... [View All]

[arwalden]

... I can easily imagine that you'd now be bitching about how he threw away stuff that you wanted to keep. (How DARE HE?!? eh?)

I'd think you should be glad that he opted for speed and efficiency rather than making judgment calls for you, and rather than taking extra time to ask which batteries (or whatever he came across) you wanted to keep and what you wanted to toss.

Try to imagine which would be worse: packing it ALL yourself and taking EXTRA TIME for sorting it ALL yourself as you packed... or... having someone help you to get it done, packed up, moved out, moved in where you can sort at your leisure?

How THOUGHTLESS of him to be so thorough!! :eyes: Good grief! Throw it away yourself if you don't want it.

Edit: "Common sense is dead"? Sounds to me like common courtesy is dead. Cut the guy some slack! Did you at LEAST thank him for helping you? If that's your attitude towards him, I'd have a hard time imagining him ever wanting to help you do something like that again.
