Check into a hotel and enjoy your stay. If you need clothes and stuff, go to Target.

Is he allowed to unlock the unit himself? How big a deal is it for him to leave to deposit keys? I could actually imagine my husband being a bit like this as he's a total work perfectionist and would never want to have to ask his boss for a favor/tell him that he messed something up in a situation like this unless it actually mattered. He'd probably tell me to chill for 2 hours if I had a warm car/place to wait.

I read it twice because I expected it to say ex-wife.


Yeah, healthy people don't play chicken like that. That is totally nuts.


It's not playing chicken. If the wife dropped something and refused to pick it up she is the @sshole.


These are married people who have contempt for each other. Not even dislike or hate. Contempt. Why be married.

If my wife dropped a dryer sheet and I saw it, I’d just pick it up. In fact even my kids would just pick it up. Some of you people really treat your loved ones badly.

He can recover from this by taking the initiative to install a smartlock, pronto.


And my 15 year old could walk right into your house with no key and not have to pause at your door.


You’re ridiculous.

If you have a garage, put up a coded door opener. Hide a key in the garage in case you lock the door going into the house.

Put a coded lock on one of your house doors.

Yes, most definitely your “Dear” Husband is being a huge jerk.

His disregard of you being locked out of the house along w/him not making accommodations for you to get your house key are simply inconsiderate ➕ selfish!

He can’t walk out of the ward but what he could have done was give the keys to security to hand to me. Apparently this is a personal issue for him because it makes him look forgetful and he doesn’t want to look like he’s on his phone. My keys have always been separate because the car keys stay at the bottom of my bag as my car is touch start/open and makes my house keys lighter.



Consider a keypad door lock.

Was the laundry entirely hers, or did it include your laundry too? If it was your laundry too, you are an ass

Sometimes we run downstairs for a coffee. Sometimes we run to another unit to say hi to another coworker. Sometimes we get door dash and have to run down to get it.

In an instance like this, if I was too busy to run down and give them to OP, I would have asked the lobby attendant (at my hospital it is staffed until 7pm) if she could hold them and that my spouse would be there shortly to grab them.

You both seem uptight and inflexible


Not all of us work on u it's as poorly run as yours


I'd say a poorly run unit is one that is so poorly staffed that nurses cannot leave the floor for 5-10 min. Our assignments are light enough that I would have no issues covering a coworkers assignment while he ran to give keys to his wife. There are breaks in patient care.
