This week's "Stupid Man" Moment
Our cleaning lady comes on Thursdays – we've established a pretty good routine when it comes to managing this. We both do the "pre-clean" the night before, I'm responsible for writing her a little note about what to clean, and Adam is responsible for hitting the ATM (we pay her cash) the night before and dropping off the key at the front desk on his way to work.
Today he sends me a note saying "Did you drop the key off? I looked everywhere and couldn't find it." I ended up needing to run home immediately because he couldn't get away and she usually arrives before 8:30am. I didn't want her leaving (and not cleaning!) because she couldn't get in.
I go upstairs thinking the keys had probably fallen off the counter and into our bag of plastic bags. It takes me FIVE SECONDS to find the keys. They were underneath the clean rags I had left out for her. He didn't even LOOK! So annoying!!!
Why wouldn't he look around a little? Why wouldn't he call me before he left the apartment? Why wouldn't he leave HIS key at the front desk so she could at least get in. STUPID MAN! I come back to the office and vent to one of my fellow female analysts. Her response, "Well, brace yourself, they get worse AFTER you have kids" -- Add that to my list of reasons I'm not in a rush to have kiddies yet!!!
