I'm sure there is a "responsible adult" out there who "cleans up" after this person. Resenting it while doing it too, I'm sure.
This isn't the impression I got. She gets her stuff done, goes to the bank and responds to emails, but not in a timely and organised way and she's unhappy with that. You're right, this is a very lucky and privileged situation in the grand scheme of things, but her situation is not the same as yours.
What do you think would happen if she had a couple of kids? Would she a) Spend all day on Facebook and let them starve or b) Become a more organised person through her new responsibility?
Also bear in mind (from the FAQ):
Yes. Aside from the odd exaggeration for comic effect, the vast majority of my stories are completely true to life.
- cianestro 16y agoI would test this theory on a pet first.
- grumpycanuck 16y agoI have no idea if she would become more organized as a result of having a couple of kids. My observations of other people who have had kids leads me to conclude that disorganized single people rarely become organized parents.
