What an ass.

One of my co-workers brothers stopped in the office today, from the break room I heard him ask if her son would be there for the Thanksgiving dinner, she gave an affirmative to that and added that her grandchildren would be there as well. The brother asked about the son's wife, "no", my co-worker replied she was going to her family. "Why doesn't she come with B"? (The son) "Are they separated?"
"If she had her way," was was his sisters reply. "What a bitch", he said. "She married him, what's her problem, she should be with him".

Hmmmmmmmm.....
I held my tongue but what I wanted to say was that when the wife married B, he was a reasonably productive member of socity, he had a job, kids that he loved and shared custody of and had a future. Now he had a back injury and no job, he was too lazy to get off his ass and get his workers comp to fix his back and instead became a drug addict. They lost their house, custody of the children and she is supporting him. She hasn't left because she loves him and is afraid he will kill himself so she continues to enable him. At least his mother saw the light and kicked him out after he nearly burned down her house while he was stoned.

This is this guys nephew! What an ass. Of course he hasn't worked a day in 7 years, since his diagnosis of CHF. Too weak. Right....he can hike around taking photographs in the mountains, but he can't hold down a job so he is a "caregiver" to his father and lives of his pension.
