People are a trip. I have a client, about 82, he works as an editor out of his house, mostly on Skype these days. Dude has boatloads of unaddressed anger, cannot look at himself as the source of his difficulties. More and more was dumping on me over boo - chit. Past tense as at his last borderline pyschotic breakdown I told him we were done. I have more work than I can handle now, if I advertised I'd have even more. I do sorta like the guy but enough is enough.

But there is a lesson to be learned here. I need to look carefully to see if I'm guilty of similar - old man shouting at clouds syndrome.

Good story about the boy. I suspect she mellowed out and showed him in her way that she approved of his behavior.
