I am sitting in my laundry room waiting for my stuff to dry, and the blind girl comes in. She puts her stuff in the washer and the soap in the right part. Closes it and starts it up after putting the money in. She asked me if I could help her select hot. She already started the machine and these machines once they are started you can not switch the cycle. And I explained that to her. She started yelling at me, telling me that I should of told her that she was blind and blah, blah, blah. I watched her put her stuff in and do everything on her own. How the hell was I supposed to know she needed help? Then she called me a stupid dumb b1tch and said I will get somebody else to help.

I was lie f*ck try to help somebody and this is the thanks I get? Forget that crap!

At what point do you just stop caring?

never

Never. You never stop caring.

Sounds like a soap opera

She could not have expected you to know that. She was prolly just having a bad day. I wouldn't get too upset about it hon.

I have seen her go off on people before.

If you have a few extra quarters
stuff her azz in the dryer on high.
She'll calm down after a little while

Welcome to my building! The building is named Cormack Station, a bunch of us have changed it to Carny Cavern.

I stopped caring on February 17, 2004. It's amazing how much easier things get when you just don't give a crap anymore.

As far as the situation at hand goes- if she isn't patient enough to listen to what you have to say, then simply DON'T help the person. It's not worth the crap.

And I know that you never stop caring, but FRIG people just piss me off sometimes. I mean I understand that she is blind and all. And my heart goes out to her it really does. But if you are going to be rude to people they are not going to want to jump to help you.

Something must of happened on that date.

I got a pocket full of them, and she is at the dryer now!

I have found out that some people you just are unable to help.
And it's not that you stop caring. You can care without all the drama.
I have learned that I can be someones friend without taking in all their problems.

Step back and let life take it's course.....

You know what I always say -- the world is full of idiots, and they're all either on the internet or driving the car in front of me.

And now there's one in your laundry room!

Don't let it get to you. There are more important things in life than trying to please idiots.

She just did another load and asked for my help. I said no, was that wrong of me?

Your right! Like trying to find my friends rabbit some bunny slippers!

Theres two resasons (IMO) people stop caring.

1) Out of sight out of mind, if you never see hear, talk to or talk about a person, they become really easy to forget.

2) If a problem gets too emotionally stressful some people have trained themselves to kinda "shut down" as a defense mechanism.
