Some guy called my dad a "lying son of a bitch" today.
I'm trying to not think about it, because it inspires a special kind of rage in me. My dad is a sweet, nice guy. He's VERY non-confrontational. The guy in question, either there was a misunderstanding with some dealing with my mom, or someone on behalf of the guy totally told him the wrong thing, but the guy was there to pick up some furniture my mother had sold him (from her store closing) and there was a discrepancy as to what all he was actually getting. And his way to solve this was to call my dad that.
Mom was already feeling uneasy about dealing with the guy she sold the furniture to, because she felt like he could back out (when she'd had other people interested in it that she had to turn away) or pull something. There were many other details, but the fact that someone DARED to call my dad that when I know what he's like when in a confrontation...it royally pisses me off. Mom didn't hear it or know about it until after he left or she'd have told him to take his money and get out, no sale. I'm kind of sure that if I'd been there I'd have probably gone off on the man and been nasty. Gah. It was good that I wasn't there, but I wish Mom had witnessed it and gone off on the guy. She's more controlled when she's mad. I'm not.
