| Ok, please tell me, am I too picky??? PEOPLE CAN BE SOOOO DUMB AND INFURIATING >:( Have you ever had to deal with a person who questions everything? Who does not follow instructions? (an adult) Tonight 2 riders went out horseback riding in the dark. (dumb dumb dumb) I mean dark, cattle, recent cougar sightings ::) ) Horses spooked, riders got dumped. (dumb dumb dumb) One was slightly injured, but made her way back to the barn where she flagged two of us down. The other was still on the ground out in the pasture unable to get back on her own. I got to the injured lady first, seen she would get up and just go back down again. Sometimes she would respond and sometimes she would not. She asked for my help back to the barn and I told her I thought it would be best if she just stayed put till help arrived. As another was approaching I yelled out (it was dark) Please go call 911 (first request) they continued to approach I yelled out yet again, please, I have a bum ankle and cannot run as you can please go call 911 (second time) They continued to approach.....I was like >:( :( >:( :( ::) I yelled out yet a third time, PLEASE turn around and go call 911. They came up and I ran off and called them myself. Leaving instructions not to move her (which they did anyway) I have badly injured an ankle 2 times in the past so running on uneven ground at night is not cool. Regardless this individual nevers follows instructions. (dumb dumb dumb) This person ( the other worker) usually always questions things. (Instead of just doing it) Usually always tries to find a short cut. Usually always tried to do things different than they are shown, causing things to have to be re-done or cleanned up after or in a manor that takes 2 or 3 times as long. And I want to choke the holy #@#@* out of this person ::) Ever deal with this type person? I fear praying for patience as I have been told more trials will come ones way to indeed teach patience. But lack of regard and lack of grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr I am so angry tonight I could spit nails. >:( |

| Good grief, it sounds like they broke every rule of safe riding. Can they be banned from your barn? FOR LIFE? They endangered themselves, the horses and you... If you don't already, can you set Ground Rules in your barn which if they aren't followed means you're out, tough luck?If you're the boss of this worker, can you give him or her the elbow?? (because of the blatant disregard for safety, not because they're really annoying lol) Do cell phones work where you are? Then you could carry one and be able to call in cases of emergency and not have to rely on other people to go back and call... May Allaah give us all patience in dealing with the dumb and infuriating! PS no, you're not too picky, anyone who endangers life like that deserves a rap on the knuckles! |

| As you requested, sister: I tell you, "you are too picky." In truth, however, you are not. The actions of these people is simply deplorable. You have every right IMHO to be angry. However, if it makes you feel any better, Allah loves those who are patient ;) so maybe these people in your life are just oodles of opportunities to earn good deeds in the eyes of Allah. May peace be with you, Ash |
