Unfortunately,there will be more of these petty comments from him before he moves out-tedious and tiresome,trying to gauge your reaction.
If it all gets too much,you could leave the room,leave him speaking to himself :^O |
dtrh3 I suspect you are totally right. Yes I can just wander out of the room leaving him talking to himself. Of course he is making sure all his ducks are in a row. That's what makes me shake my head at his manipulative character.
And yes how dare he use me to prop him up till his family can set up House B ready for him to move in. I can't stand him being here but not much I can do but count the days/weeks. At the moment it's a 'controlled' nightmare. No point escalating it to an out of control hell.
I've had my own secret wins though. It's his job to look after the pool, I look after the house. The Kreepy Krawly stopped working. His solution was to disconnect it and leave it.

10 min of research and I discovered why it wasn't working. Seems Mr Useless was too busy chatting to his skank for the last 6 months to bother making the effort to learn about pool maintenence. All I needed him to do was open the vacuum sealed filter cos I didn't have the strength. Cleaned the filter - voila - KK now works beautifully.
Pool has been cloudy for over a week. Mr Useless's answer? Ignore it and it will all go away. 10 min research (reading the freaking manual doh!) and I discover the pool has a high Ph level, work out what it needs, find the relevant product in the garage, tell Mr Useless how much to pour in the water, tell Mr Useless to leave the pump on 24 hours.
Pool clear now.
OF COURSE I DON'T NEED HIM.
