The only thing she crossed the line about was asking to come to your apt when you're not there.  |
Hey, we're all family here
It was worth a try, wasn't it? Worst that would have happened (it did!) was that the apt. dwellers would say NO! It was certainly worth a try, and made all the other requests the lady had pale in comparison!

| I know it's not your choice to sell the apartment, but for the period of time that it's being shown, you may have to bite the bullet and allow people to come when it's not so comfortable or convenient. Unless you set down a fixed schedule (that includes hours before and after the average workday) you're going to have a lot of problems with prospective buyers. Work out a schedule that seems fair to those who are shopping and doesn't feel too terrible for your family, and leave it at that.

| Quote: | I can be dan her lekaf zechus a million times over, but I dont have to wreck my evening and thereby my week (bec if I dont work one night, the rest of my week is stressful, trying to make up my work hours) just because of whatever her reasoning may be that she has to see my apt on short notice at the exact time that she wants.
and I decided... if uriels asleep or I'm putting him to sleep, and its before 6:55 or after 6:10, I'm just not gonna go answer the door. I said 6:00 exactly, not before, not after...
and if hes not asleep, I'm not gonna let her in to see the apt if shes more than 15 minutes in either direction, no matter how pushy she is.
I'll say "my husband said 6:00 exactly, not before or after, for a reason. come back at 6:00 (if she's too early) or come back some other day, but give me at least 24 hrs notice, or just don't come at all."
| you asked if you're over reacting. What's done is done and now be dl"z.

I agree about the cell. I think 2am is okay to call a cellphone too. If you don't want to answer it, then leave it switched off, or sound off.
But I also am wondering, like Tamiri, why these people have your cell number....

About the phone, turn it off.... If it is a cell phone esp... We don't have the ringer on when sleeping so it doesn't wake us or the kids

That's a bit much I think (u said that you wouldn't let her in if not there at 6 on the dot) . But, my bet is, is that she will come before 6 anyways, despite what you said.

I am at home. I work at home.
B'h for my brother.
I know these posts make no sense to anyone but me, but I fele better about posting them.
And gr, no, I have not been sleeping well, I go to sleep really late because I'm working, and then I get woken up a mere few hours after I got to sleep by a pushy israeli who I'll have to deal with in a few minutes....

Breslov... good luck for "surviving" the visit...
For the future, PLEASE don't let this happen again, tell your husband NOT to agree, or if he feels bad, take the phone and speak for yourself!

I had no clue breslov when I visited u today
I can understand the potential buyers end.when I went to look at the apts in your neck of the woods,I either needed to come before 10am or after 7pm.when I spoke to the first lady I said I would come in the evening....we had two different ideas of what evening is,I came at 6 she wasn't going to be home till 10pm BH her neighbor let me look at hers,so I could get an idea of the the apt.
your request is understandable,but take deep breaths and u will get thru this.I think the underlying reason for the stress is that he is selling your apt, that u are very comfortable in
so when someone calls to see the apt just cut them off...as landlords do me when I want to come look,"to view the house is between 12-4pm"u can leave it on the machine and let that be it.u/h dont have to answer it,the message is there.your dh shouldn't have to answer the phone except for recognized numbers.

well. 6:00 came and went. I needed to go to the makolet. I left at 6:30. she wanted to see it? come wen I say so.
I'm home now. if she comes now, I'm either not gonna answer the door or I'll answer and tell her "I told her 6:00, she wasnt here, tough luck, our apt is NOT available to be seen now."

| I would not give that person another appointment. Tell them to complain to your landlord, and if he asks you, tell him you already waited for them for half an hour once.

So turns out she came while I was at the makolet, no one was home so she called my husband to say "I'm here!" and my husband politely told her that I left. if she wanted to see the apt she should have come at 6 like we told her to, and if she wanted to wait for me, she could.
I was kinda hoping she would so I could be mean to her and come home and davka not let her see it bec she came at the wrong time. But she left before I got here.
You think I might have taught her a lesson, or not likely?
