Am Mad At My Grandmother On My Dad’s Side?

Here is the story:my family and I are originally from Romania except my 14 yr. old brother who was born here. So back in Romania we have my mom’s mom and dad’s parents.My dad’s parents both have diabetes and my grandfather is turning 80 this year.My parents have always given my grandparents whenever we visited them,when they visited us,etc. which my grandmother from my father’s side has always saved for bad days which they never had since their sons my dad and his brother took care of them.Last year my dad was in Romania and my grandfather had a stroke or heart attack and maybe a diabetic coma too.My dad stayed with him in the hospital but then my granfather started to have beginning of alzheimer’s and parkinson’s.Before he left my dad hired someone to take care of my grandparents(his parents) in the sense to do their shopping,clean their carpets and whatever else they needed.My grandfather would still take out the trash and buy bread but the building they live in is 40 years old and it has 4 levels (my grandparengts’ apartment is on the last level).I am mad at my grandmother because when another apartment a couple of years ago was for sale on the botton level(ground) my dad and my uncle suggested that my grandparents move but she refused because she said that she has all her memories in this apartment plus one of her best friends which is her neighbor lives across the hall from them.FF to what has happened recently which is the lady that my parents hired asking for a raise or something and my grandmother being so cheap that she said no,then my grandfather who is turning 80 this year having to do some of the grocery shopping, then he started to forget, then he lost his hearing but then he has a hearing aid yet my grandmother has no mercy on him.I swear she is so cheap that it makes me sick.She has a couple thousand dollars saved up which she would rather save then pay someone to help them with the groceries, my parents’ friends and my mom’s friends help them when possible with some more shopping but I am mad mad mad at my grandmother.I love her dearly but how can she do this to my grandfather?If he started to forget things and so forth how can she still send him out to buy groceries?Doesn’t she feel sorry for him?My dad talked on the phone with them 2 weeks ago when he found out that my grandfather fell and an ambulance had to be called,If it gets this bad and my grandfather still has to walk is she trying to put him in his deathbed before his time?My dad is mad as I am yet my parents do not any more finances to pay the lady to care of them.They have given my grandparents everything but I am sitting here mad and angry and frustrated because this summer I am supposed to visit my grandparents which I have not seen in 4 years yet feel that if I do see my grandmother on my dad’s side chaos will break loose.So what do I do?

Yes it contained the Cheque that he issued in Delhi and underneath again an apology.

New Target Employee With Questions…..?

My orientation is in a few days, so I am sure many of my questions will be answered there, but I was just wondering……
I’m going to be doing sales floor hardlines….they sort of explained it at the interviews, but what is hardlines, all they really said was “think softlines/carpet, hardlines/no carpet, but sometimes they interchange….”.
Are there different areas in hardlines, or do you just kinda do it all? I’m really excited to work there, though I have heard the horror stories. It’s a brand spanking new target too:)
Also, how does one “move up” in the company? I’m a hard worker, don’t get involved with drama, and I listen. I’m not saying that that entitles me to be moved up or anything, I’m just curious how the process works….
Also, I’m a smoker, I remember seeing something that says target is a smoke free zone, but I have seen target employees smoking on their breaks before so I’m just curious about that. I can deal with not being able to it they don’t want me to smoke there, but it would be nice to know the policy on that too.
Thank you to whoever answers:)

Sears Gave Me Strange Advice About Their Kenmore Progressive Vacuum Cleaner Inteliclean System. Heard Of This?

Sears just had a sale on vacuum cleaners and I got their progressive upright model 35923 with the “inteliclean” system. This is the one highly rated by Consumer Reports.
I used it for a few days, and it seemed okay, except the inteliclean system would start acting weird after about 30 minutes of use. It would slip into the highest-power mode and get “stuck” there. Even on areas that it previously went over and sensed as clean. I could temporarlily fix it by switching out of carpet mode, then back in, but after a while it would get stuck again.
Swapped it for another one, and the sales associate tells me to NOT USE the inteliclean system the first few times I vacuum. When I ask why, she says “I don’t know what the reason is, we’re just supposed to tell the customers that”. Sounds pretty strange to me. There’s nothing in the manual about it.
Has anyone else gotten this advice from Sears regarding their inteliclean equipped vac? If so, what’s the reason for it?

Did You Know That…….?

Here Are Some Jokes For You… Are They Nice?

Door-to-Door Sales Crap
An enthusiastic door-to-door vacuum salesman goes to the first house in his new territory. He knocks, a real mean and tough looking lady opens the door, and before she has a chance to say anything, he runs inside and dumps cow patties all over the carpet.
He says, “Lady, if this vacuum cleaner don’t do wonders cleaning this up, I’ll eat every chunk of it.”
She turns to him with a smirk and says, “You want ketchup on that?”
The salesman says, “Why do you ask?”
She says, “We just moved in and we haven’t got the electricity turned on yet.”

I Need Help About Buying My First Home From A Builder?

We put a contract on a house and will be closing on it next week. The builder excepted our offer and agreed to put a hardwood floor down in the foyer where we requested it. It was previously carpet and we didn’t want to track dirt in from the front door or garage door there. After that they said they would need a deposit for the flooring so that they would not lose any money if we backed out of the contract. They stated that the deposit would be given back at closing. Okay, so we get an addendum to the contract yesterday. Our original offer was $161,500 and that would include them installing the hardwood in the foyer. They excepted that offer. Now the addendum to the contract states the new sales price as $162400 to account for the $900 deposit I sent in to secure the floors. In the addendum states, they will credit our money back at closing. But, something is not adding up to me. The new sales price is S162,402. Okay, if they refund my $900 at closing. Doesn’t that mean that I would have to put that $900 that I paid out of my pocket back on the loan to get the sales price back to $161,502? So, really am I paying for the hardwood floors in the end?

Should I Buy This 2005 Town And Country Touring?

I use to Nanny the sales man’s children so I thought he would give me a good deal on a Van…well its been a mess here is the story.
We shopped around for a while and went back and forth with him but he ended up finding us a auction van that was what we were looking for. It has 35,550 miles, one owner, clean carfax, red (the color I wanted). First he quoted us 11575 then moved it up to 11800. With all the taxes and all it came out to be 12599.27. First he told us that it should be in with in two days. Then it calls us and said it wouldn’t be in for 6-8 days. But he was nice enough to give us a loaner van dodge caravan to drive with no gas in it tho. But the van came in yesterday and I went to go look at it…has the usual nicks and scratchs on it.. one major on the right side tho but it was still filthy inside and I looked underneath the stow in go and there was MOLD! lots of it.
The manager tells me he will make an appt for me to come back…this is Williamsburg and I live in Hampton 45 minute drive. I tell him no I wont be drivign off the lot with the mold in there. I ask him to replace it and he says sure thing we will replace those compartments as well as the carpet! I”m like WOW….awesome since the carpet looked really worn and had a hole in it for the driver side. I drive off and then the car sales men calls me and is like I was with another client and says he will have to talk to the manager about replacing the stuff but wasn’t sure about it and I told him that he said he would …he calls me back and said he will do new mats and have them vaccum again and wipe off the mold.
Well they called today and told me its all clean and mats are ordered…Well if he didn’t even check out the whole interior should I trust them with buying the vehicle?? And where is there a good mechanic for me to take it into to have it checked out? in Williamsburg, Va?
Sorry that was so long!!

For Those People Who Wanted To Read The Finished Version?

It was after school, and after lacrosse practice. I needed Scotch tape. I went to the Wal-Mart down the road to procure some. Little did I know that this would become a battle with my own sanity before I left. Now, I can’t say that I’ve been shopping for Scotch tape in recent memory, so I wasn’t exactly sure where to find it. My best guess placed me in the aisle with all of the household cleaning supplies. No go. So I went an aisle over to find some immigrant worker stocking paper towels. Clearly, this guy would know where to find the Scotch tape. Or, at least, that’s what I thought at first.
“Excuse me, Sir? I’m looking for Scotch tape,” I say.
The man looks up from his work, standing up to a good three and a half feet tall. Apparently, this particular Wal-Mart was looking to meet its Oompa Loompa quota. ” Scotch tape?” he asks?
“Yeah, Scotch tape.”
He stares at me blankly for a few seconds. “Spray?” he confusedly replies.
Oh, Jesus. This was a mistake. “No, it’s not a spray.”
So, Oompy Boy takes me back to the aisle I was just in, points into it, and declares “Spray.” Then, he walks off. And so we have strike one. I set off again to locate somebody that both worked there AND spoke English, a task that would prove nigh-impossible. I eventually run into this old lady dragging a cart of boxes around. I ask her where the Scotch tape is. She replies that it’s either in the aisle I was just in, or in the aisle with the carpet cleaners. Well, I was just in the aisle I was just in, and couldn’t find the Scotch tape even with the assistance of a little orange man. I relayed this information to the lady.
She took me back to the aisle I was just in, anyways. I hate people.
As soon as the lady realized that there was not, in fact, any Scotch tape in this aisle, I was pointed in the direction of carpet cleaners about halfway across the store. I embarked on my journey at once. I soon arrived, but alas, no Scotch tape. The carpet cleaners section contained, amazingly enough, only carpet cleaners. Apparently not having suffered enough from my previous two encounters, I again set out to seek the assistance of a salesperson. Each attempt proved increasingly difficult, as salespeople at this particular Wal-Mart were about as elusive as naked women at the Neverland Ranch. I had made it all the way to pool supplies before I managed to catch up to one unable to scurry away from me before I could plead for help, possibly because her fat *** seemed to weigh in excess of a metric ton. I ask her where I can find some Scotch tape.
” Scotch tape?” she asks.
Oh, Jesus. Here we go again. “Yeah, Scotch tape.”
“Check the cleaning supplies aisle over in groceries,” she suggests.
Yeah, that wasn’t going to fly. I politely inform her that her suggested avenue had already been explored, and that she had best provide a more suitable answer before I buried my foot deep inside of her size-52 ***.
“Umm… hardware?” she says. This was not a more suitable answer. My reply, though nonverbal, seemed to convey my feelings on the subject. Long live the power of the facepalm!
So, Tubby walks me over to another sales assistant, who she then proceeds to ask, “Yo Quiero Scotch tape?”
The other associate turns to look at her and then, in perfect English, replies, “what’s Scotch tape?”
Oh, God. Butterball spent a few seconds trying to explain it to her before finally turning to me and again pointing me in the direction of hardware. Eager to be away from the hungry clutches of a hideous beast likely to eat me at her next feeding time, I left for hardware.
Upon entering hardware, I encounter a Hispanic lady that strongly resembled Nikki Sixx of Motley Crue, only with more tattoos and considerably less attractive. I asked her where I may procure so Scotch tape and was pointed towards automotives. Fine. Automotives sounded like a better idea than hardware, so I went to go check it out. Alas, still no Scotch tape. So, I head back to the hardware whore and demand that I be shown to the Scotch tape in automotive. She complies, and I back off to automotives with the bassist from Motley Crue in tow. She searches for a little while, but is unable to find the object of my desire. Another sales rep, who was apparently lord and master of the automotive section appeared and was flagged down for help by the ***** from hardware. After presented with the situation, the Queen of Automotive Land formally declared that Scotch tape had been discontinued.
Right. Scotch tape has been discontinued. And I’m the king of ******* Spain.
The Automotive Mistress begins a long speech about how unpopular products are discontinued after awhile and I will have nothing of it. I cut her off and ask if they have any of a product just like Scotch tape. I am taken and dragged deep into the bowels of automotives in search of this mysterious substitute. Automotives Whore points me towards some leather polish. Way to go. I take this moment to explain two thin
