I just had to politely raise my voice...

to MIL.

Why does this woman refuse to take TWO advil? She asks for 1 all the time and today I'm like, 'ONE does nothing! Take TWO! TWO is the dose!'

She's sick and wants some relief and i THINK she may have listened to me for once. Oyyy this womannnn

Re: I just had to politely raise my voice...

Because she doesn't get the kind of attention she wants from taking 2 advil and getting relief. It's much more fun to whine about it and have a big pity party! My co-worker is the same damn way. She 'tweaked' her shoulder and needs to go to physical therapy to get it fixed (the newest of 1,000 injuries), but she just can't because she can't afford it. This is the woman who goes on a shopping spree to Vicky's and NY&Co. every SEASON and smokes a pack of cigarettes a day. Can't imagine why!
