I deal with it as well - clean out the driveway only to have the heavy 
wet crap dumped back on it - now I really have to get out there to get 
rid of it before it freezes or I am going no where for a couple of days 
as I chip through the ice.

Honestly - good job not letting him get to you.  It's too easy to let 
things like that get one hyped up and make matters worse.  When I see 
things like that I sometimes see it as a challenge - he's having a bad 
day - how can I make it better so that he doesn't have to feel this way.


Good job!
