[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Am I alone in thinking that by your forties, you should be willing to hire professional movers, especially if you have a professional job? Is it wrong that I find this expectation to help annoying? There’s no good way of politely declining with an excuse when someone says - we’ve taking 3 weeks in June to move, which weekend do you want to help run boxes over to the new house? I can’t exactly say I’m busy all day every weekend for 3 weeks.[/quote] Are you gonna melt snowflake?? If you do any social activities with these people, it won’t cost you anything to go pack some boxes. [/quote] Is your time free? Do you give away free labor? Most people don't. Nothing in life is free and you may get injured in the process. Just say no because it's not something people in their 40s should have to do to spare cheap family a few bucks.[/quote]
