Advice for the real world.
Dear Amy: Two weeks ago, my husband, who was not being careful enough, came down with COVID-19.
It was painful to see all the outcries of joy from the other members that we would be meeting. Despite the measures I took to remove myself from the group text, I continued to receive messages. I understand that people are worried about COVID, but is it wrong to expect some common courtesy? If someone is not really invited to an event, isn’t it cruel to include that person in a group text?Dear Lonely: I assume your main question is about the utility of excluding someone from an outdoor event who consistently tests negative for COVID for many days leading up to the event.
This is a temporary but tough thing for you to experience, and after two pandemic years of facing other tough things, it might hurt a little more than it should.Dear Amy: My dad has built incredible things, including a garage and an addition on his home. He has remodeled neighbors’ homes and made some remarkable, high-quality projects. This is his hobby.
Is it presumptuous of me to think my dad would help me build something if I cover the costs for all of the materials?I never ask him for anything and was stoked when he called and said he had time to help, but our last conversation left me deflated.Dear Frustrated: Your father wasn’t specific regarding charging you for his time and talent. And it seems that he is advancing you the cost of the material.
