Ugh! 45 minutes completing G's commission invoicing. He has already phoned me three times!
Dude, cheque gets cut tomorrow, signed on Friday.

I neither cut the cheque, nor sign it. Quit calling!

Then, an hour later he calls again. Very sad really.

He has now been told at least 20 times that there is no position for him going forward.
Every time he calls me, he asks when he and I are going to Bolton!
WE are not. I may not in fact, be going either. But for sure, it will not be he and I!!

Lord, help me stay patient. And kind.

Given what you have to deal with with your brothers, sons, and others, I imagine you are already very patient. Especially since you are in sales; that requires so much patience. I have no doubt that you will deal with him as kindly as possible.

Thank you @StarWarsGirl95! I had a feeling you were going to say that! ;) We always seem to end up at Prime Time, so I just wanted to see if there was another place we could go with Mom for TS. We're not able to do a ton of walking with her, so we're kinda stuck with HS for dinner.
We ate at H&V a few times and it was fine. Nothing special but just to have a different option it was okay. I'm not into traipsing all over WDW for one meal just to come back to the same park I was just in.

Thank you. I needed that.

It's not his fault. I told you more than a year ago that I think he has Alzheimer's or dementia. I suggested to the Boss that she send him a formal letter thanking him for his years of service and advising him of his termination. At least there would be a chance that his wife would read it and comprehend its implications.

I feel bad that he is in his mid-70's and is still needing $$ so badly. These should be his golden years.
That being said, that Brampton site was the last site that I will work with him. As you know, he didn't type deals, couldn't get them signed, would not take them to H.O., and probably cost us a few along the way because he was often confused, drank on the job, and occasionally got argumentative with Purchasers.

Considering that he primarily handed out water and blew up balloons, he earned just under $200/hour. You read that right - per hour!

While my obligation to "carry him" is over, my obligation to be kind never expires.
