Do You Have Incosiderate Friends?

Tweet

Right now I am sitting here waiting for a "supposed" friend to get here to help him. He was supposed to be here by noon and it is almost 4:00 P.M. I had to rescedule my week to do this for him. He bought a house and hired me to do design changes and colors ( I painted the whole thing too, inside and out). The agreement was that I would get contractors to fix the house, do some of the work and we would sell it and split the money. He lied and didn't have the finances to do this, so he insisted on doing some of the work. The way to make money flipping a house is to get it done as fast as possible and put it up for sale. He dragged this on for 10 months. Now there's no money and he's supposed to give me enough money to pay my bills until the house sells. He has not done that and I'm out. He hasn't had a regular job for a year and a half because he is too lazy. He's 46 and lives with his parents...Now he is trying to refinance on the house (with no money, job, and bad credit from using credit cards and not paying on time) and needs to put furniture in it to seem like he lives there. He also had to take it off the market so a loan can go through. I am sitting here with a bed, dresser, couch, tables to loan him and load them in a truck...go to the house and assemble them, and he is 4 hours late and still not here. Do you have stories about friends that take advantage of you?
