Okay, I'm mad. Beyond mad. Close to furious.

What do you do with someone who won't even take a simple reminder about something important, that they have obviously forgotten about, without getting all defensive and nasty?

You say 'fine, whatever' and leave them alone to take responsibility for their shit, right?

But what happens if, by doing that, it means they have to screw something else up? And you get blamed for *that* happening (i.e. they get mad you wouldn't cover for them?) Again?

Sometimes, I really hate my life.
