Reply to comment by [deleted] in Do you micromanage your plow service? by [deleted]

So... now I'm curious.

  • Why was your bf's car there?
  • Did you expect the plow to come by to sand?
  • Where was your bf's car parked (was it easy enough for the plow to avoid it)?
  • Did the car actually get damaged, or was it at risk of getting damaged? This is the part I'm curious about- either there was an actual risk here, or your bf is being picky for no good reason.

I don't have enough info to judge, but from the very limited evidence offered, I'm tending toward the "Keep the plow guy. Drop the boyfriend" point of view!

Sand and gravel probably did hit the cars. It’s totally not a big deal. If you have a pristine vintage car, driving around VT in the winter is not a great move.

So it sounds like the plow guy did exactly what one would want and expect. He touched up the driveway, he didn’t encroach on the area where cars were parked, and he caused no damage. He had no control over the car being where it was but it didn’t matter because the car wasn’t damaged.

Your bf sounds like a pill and I have to wonder how he behaves in other aspects of life. Consider for example how he’s going to be when your 3-year-old doesn’t put his toys away “correctly,” if you were to have kids with him.

Scary thought. This guy sounds like a liability, not a bf. He doesn’t sound like a real Vermonter either, or he would know.
