Sometimes No Matter What You Do You Lose
Author: siggySometimes no matter what you do you lose. My wife told me to pay the “lawn” guy who worked for about two and half hours. He cleaned out the gutters, cut some branches off our large pine tree and did some raking.
He asked for $85 which I paid him. When I told my wife how much I paid him, she screamed I paid him too much and literally threw a tantrum screaming, “He cheated us.”
I told her I knew that was a little high he charged us and we did not discuss what we were going to pay him before hand.
It is also true going up on a ladder and cutting branches was a little dangerous although I did not tell my wife that.
Anyway, I got the silent treatment from my wife the rest of the evening. Sometimes even when you do what your wife asks you to do you still get in trouble. I will just try to cut my losses. And not make it worse. And hope she decides to talk to me later.
