She was complaining the other week about having to bend down to get brushes out of her grooming kit off the floor (she's perfectly able bodied by the way and she's only in her late 40's it's just lazyness) so she wanted to put a bit of wood onto our gate so she could hang her grooming kit up.
I asked why couldn't she just hang it off the bit of wooden fencing next to the gate where she used to hang it but she said she didn't want to put her hand through the electric fencing. I pointed out that the electric tape had to be off before we tied the horses up anyway and she said "oh... yes you're right I'll just do that then"
I went up to do the horses today (first time in what feels like forever since taking on this new job - still doing full time hours btw even though it was only supposed to be 20hrs because the manager "couldn't be bothered" to change it back down till the week after next) to find that she had nailed a bit of wood on about 2ft off the ground.... with the nails sticking out about an inch pointing towards the horses!
Just waiting for a punture wound! *facepalm**bangs head on desk*
So I pulled the bit of wood off the gate and one of the nails got stuck in it (they are those nails that have no flat bit to hit with the hammer, they're basically just a sharp pointy bit of very thick wire) and I had no hammer to pull it out with so I knocked it back with a stone so it's not poking out and bent it down from outside the gate to make sure it doesn't accidentally somehow get pushed back through till I can get it out properly.
Sometimes I just want to rock in a corner hugging my knees

Are you sure you don't want her? I contacted UPS after the last time and it's actually very reasonable to send her for re-schooling...
