Whenever a dad says it will only take a minute, you know you are losing at least four hours.

Why would you buy bagged mulch if you need that much.

Whatever the hell dad has planned is neither quick nor easy and if anything goes wrong you get blamed for it. And if you call out any madnis in his ludicrous plan he’s gonna make it work somehow and rub it onto your nose.

The way how he says you about work is the most innocent thing i have ever heard, you just having a breakfast with him and in random moment he says to dress up you dirty clothes and then….. then there is nightmare you will have to replace your house 5cm left or smth like that

All this just to get a slice of pizza after 4 hours of working in the sun.
I still respect it tho

A small life tip. If you need that much mulch/top soil it’s typically cheaper to buy it in bulk from a landscape supplier. Even with delivery its typically cheaper for bulk buys like this.

I’d like to imagine I’m the father where I’d be like. Hey, I got this stuff to unload. you help, you get 15 bucks and we have pizza for dinner. I’m not gonna make my children work for free. My parents never paid me but they always put me to work any day off I had. Fuck that.

Whats that dudes video again? Is it like “oh nah” or something like that?

At least they’re in bags. Try waking up to a truck bed full of dirt and two shovels.

My dad just hired a huge dump truck to drop a mountain of dirt on our lawn. The truck’s “beep beep beep” as it backed up is what I awoke to 😭

My dad did this to me all the time growing up and then added chores on top of it. Left home at 18 and never looked back.

There was nothing… and I mean nothing… more groan inducing than when my dad called for my help from the garage.
When mom called for something, it was usually a quick chore. Take this trash out or give the dog some food. When dad called, it was like *”Here, point this flashlight at this poorly-defined thing while I fuck with it for the next 45 minutes and snap at you if you move or fidget.”*
And fuck help me if he asked me to go get him a tool.
*”Bring me the 5/8ths crescent wrench.”*
“K. What’s that look like again?”
*”It looks like a crescent wrench and it’s got ‘5/8’ on it.”*
“Got it.”
[returns 10 minutes later]
*”What the heck took so lo— son, that’s an Allen wrench.”*
“I’m bad at fractions…”

It’s work, but not hard work. An hour to unload the truck and put the bags in place… an hour to spread em. If it was your friends you at least get pizza. If it’s your dad you get nothing.

Time to lock in. I actually liked these types of chores. It was that or cleaning inside. We all worked if someone was working. Nobody slacking here and moving mulch was fulfilling in a way that scrubbing bathrooms was not.

I’m not gonna lie, loading and unloading trucks is among the best memories helping my dad work, I remember feeling so badass sweating, arms burned, I remember I wouldn’t take a break or water until the truck was loaded or empty. I think that’s why I can’t live without the gym now that I am a working professional and can’t help him
