[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As just one recent example, we had some issues with a contractor. First, they didn't show up on the day they were supposed to and we had to reschedule. Then, when they did show up, there was some I think honest misunderstanding about exactly what we wanted done. I started to talk to the guy about how what he did wasn't exactly what we had agreed to and explain what we wanted done. DW interrupted me and went after the guy like an attack dog--told him she was going to call his boss if he didn't do what we wanted or give us our deposit back. I actually felt bad for the guy and was somewhat embarrassed. He wasn't arguing with us or refusing to do anything. The guy did agree to fix it but I don't think the hostility was necessary. In fact, I was afraid it was going to backfire. Fortunately the guy took it in stride. I just have a very different style of dealing with people. This types of things happen frequently and it's also treating me a doormat that can't handle things.      [/quote]

Sorry, OP.  I know someone like this, everything is drama, and yelling like she is better than the other person - it doesn't matter how small the matter is.  The minute there is a leaf in her yard, she is on the phone with the landscaping company, who hates her, who is on retainer.   They must be there THAT day!v It is as if she is longing or her meaning in life is to just be a raging, condescending a-hole. "How dare THEY!!!!"

I don't think she has a lot of friends, and I don't think she knows why.  She needs to take it down a few - or twenty - notches.  Her DH is nice and down to earth and can be- and while she has humble beginnings and every reason to be down to earth - she is a haughty snob who complains about the stupidest things, like what the neighbors are doing.  She has no life, and people would feel bad for her is she wasn't such a raving lunatic byotch. Sorry you have to live with this powder keg, she needs help, and she needs to learn to get along with people.  But yeah, I think almost everyone knows someone like that. [/quote]
