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!
Tom
