Geeze what's with people thease days.

Yeah, but at the same time, I almost feel like I shouldn't have to pay him, when he refused the paypal payment. And, I ignored his texts.

@porwest Here's the problem. It won't solve it. He'll just keep asking me for more money. And, that's where my frustration comes in. I've already given this guy 80 over two payments, and he wanted another 50. Each time, he keeps asking for more. And more. I have to draw the line somewhere.

@kaylachan Even if he refused the payment method (which is dumb, I agree), unless the money was received for the services rendered, you still owe him the money (even if TECHNICALLY you already paid it). I agree the whole thing is just silly on his part. But I also feel like the two of you are arguing semantics. It's just my opinion and that's all it is. End the drama. Pay him. Wash your hands of it. Unless you enjoy the drama, because continuing this will certainly offer that to you, and I can only assume you prefer conflict over what is a very simple resolution here if you choose to keep this going. Again, just my opinion. Just my two cents. But if there is any frustration you are feeling about this (which I fully understand) I have to be honest here... You are doing it to yourself and can't blame Rick for it. You can solve it instantly. You are choosing not to. That's it. That's the end of my Dear Abby advice segment.

I don't carry a lot of cash on me, so he really wouldn't have gotten any. And, if it were my dad, he would've bought fuel. We keep some at home for the mower, but maybe people will learn to fill up before it gets that far, like George does. We only put three gallons in ours today because of how George likes to fuel the van.

@Ineeddentures OUrs is a push mower, too. We just need to feed it gas.

@kaylachan I have no cash at home. I would be gutted if I got robbed and someone stole our money. Got nothing of any real value as we don't bother with " stuff" I got rid of my petrol mower. Got a more I push - .my exercise. I fill my tanks when they get down to half full

Yeah, I know, right? to bad I decided to spend my money on putting gas in the van, buying food and everything else for my family.

@kaylachan It's really sad to see this happening all over.

@kareng Yeah, I know.

George and I tend to do the same. We don't ask for money, not if we can help it. Rick, no surprise there. Some stranger being brave enough to walk up to my husband.... yeah, no.

@RasmaSandra It'd be one hell of a walk. I live on the mainland side of Daytona.

@kaylachan let me make your day, tell me where you are located and i will come and ask for some money

Rick gave me the 'I could really use it line'. I didn't text back.

George managed to chase him off and speak clearly. So, I'll give him that one. I think, in this day and age, you've got to be pretty bold to just approach someone like that. And, I never replied to Rick's texts. I didn't want to.

@MarieCoyle We have someone else lined up. he's coming tomorrow morning to do the back for us and break down the branches in front. So the city won't complain.

@kaylachan I hope Rick stops the mowing without asking thing...and then expecting money for it. That's not a good way to be. Hopefully you can get someone else to mow for you.
