![]() When she used eggs to cook, she would put the broken eggshells back in the fridge.Įvery day I would ask her to do her dishes, and four days later the same dishes were in the sink building up a nice layer of mold. When she ate a banana, she would peel the banana and just drop the peel on the floor. I thought, "Great! This will work out well." Nothing could have been further from the truth.She turned out to be the most disgusting human being I have ever encountered in my life, and also a pathological liar. She told me that she was a neat freak, and loved to clean. Most of my college guy friends were pretty gross, so I thought, "Girls are clean! I'll live with one of my female friends!" As it so happened, one of my friends was also looking for a place. I'm not a neat freak or anything, but I like things to be presentable. I'm a guy, but I enjoy living in a clean apartment. I was looking for a roommate when I was starting graduate school. I went to get a health screening after that.Īssorted-color disposable cup lot Photo by Jas Min on Unsplash It turned out she was not good at remembering to do her laundry, so would regularly take my clean underwear out of the drier then eventually sneak them back into my laundry basket. The fabric was unique, and they were now beyond ruined, caked with poo and blood. I recoiled in horror when I realized that MY underpants were in her pile. One day when I got home from work, I went to take a shower. She would just drop/step out of her clothes, leaving them in a fabric pile on the floor in the bathroom, and not collect them for days. She also had a bad habit when she went to take a shower. She was perpetually late on bills and useless at keeping the kitchen clean. She was the kind of person who would come home at three am on a weeknight, bringing half the pub in tow.

"Or once she came to borrow money from me at work saying she bounced a check at her job and she was going to fired unless she paid it back." "While I was helping her clear her stuff out before they changed the locks I overheard her parents comment about how they had been paying her rent this entire time too." "For instance I paid her rent for an entire year before she got evicted anyway because she was blowing the money I gave her on random stuff." "Instead I worked through college and lived with my parents and also took out student loans." "My grandparents had left me some money that should have paid for my entire college including living expenses." "Found out in college that she was lying about things to take advantage of me financially." "Best friends from elementary school through college (my college not hers)." About a week after I left, I learned that she had quit because she didn't realize that night audit was a purely overnight job." She showed up, grasped the basics of the job, etc. She was more than a bit strange and could certainly have used a spot of mental health care, but hey, I can't throw stones. About a week before my final shift, we finally got someone in place. "Before I moved, I gave my boss a 2-month notice, because I knew hiring and training was gonna be a nightmare. A guy got arrested (and fired of course) for selling drugs to someone out the night window. Another got extremely confused when I mentioned that sleeping with a guest was completely out of bounds. One lady claimed to be computer literate, and then tried to use the mouse to physically touch the correct spot on the monitor when I asked her to click on a field. "But God, trying to hire and train someone to take over my hours - once for maternity leave, and then when I was moving away - was a nightmare. It was a super chill job, I loved my boss, and it was cool by me." "I used to work night audit/front desk at a motel adjacent to major highways. ![]()
