Yup, that makes sense. We speak from our own perspective. Out "slant" is always going to lean or skew toward ourselves.

Thing about this situation we were told specifics.

I'll be there Thursday.

Thursday comes and goes.. messages left.

Friday. More messages.

Saturday it snowed and I couldn't expect him to show up, but sorta expected perhaps a call.

Sunday. We call "one last time" and he answers and DH was told he was wrapping up another job and was going to stop by.

I read this as I was just going to stop by and assume you would be home on a Sunday evening for me to finish the job without ANY communication.

OK. We were home and did get the job finished. Is a little communication too much to ask for? I am not an inconsiderate person, totally the opposite actually, I'm normally pretty accommodating and understanding.

I guess this is why it put a bee in my bonnet.


Thanks for listening!!
