[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. It’s my BIL and SIL. Can’t politely decline or say I’m unavailable. It’s frustrating because I know they can afford to hire movers, they’re just too cheap and would rather rely in free help from family and friends. It’s my husband’s younger brother so he’s spending all day there helping him when we have shit we need to get done here to prepare for the work week.[/quote] Just stop, you 100% can decline, ‘Thank you for asking us but we’re not available’ is a complete sentence. You don’t need a long explanation. Just worrying about offending someone who is being rude. If they push repeat. If they push more tell them enough, you declined politely and the answer is no. If it persists ignore the texts or calls. Done.[/quote] Thank you for asking us?? Hells no. No need to thank someone for their rude request. “I’m sorry - I’m not available. Good luck with the move” is more than enough. [/quote]
