DH finally had a mediation scheduled today to reduce his CS. He was laid off over a year ago and hasn't found anything since then. He held off for too long (in my opinion) in modifying the CS because he was hoping that something would turn around in the job market but it hasn't. So, he and BM both received notices to be there today and lo and behold guess who DOESN'T SHOW UP!

So, the CS rep calls BM and tells her she is supposed to be there (it happens to be less than 2 miles from her house) and the following conversation takes place:

REP: Calling to remind you, need you to come in, etc.

BM: I can't make it today, I can't take off.

REP: Oh, so you are working now? (BM doesn't work and lives off of CS)

BM: Well, yes, I'm a Stay At Home Mom and my children are out of school today so I can't take off from my job as a 'mom'.

:sick:

OMG...REALLY? Pleeeeaaasssee! My skids are 13 & 12, and BM's $Baby is 2. She had no problems leaving all 3 kids home alone while she goes "shopping" or for the past few weekends so that she could "go to church" and pretend to be a Christian woman but she can't leave them for an hour and drive 2 miles and handle her damn business?

UGH! So, now they have rescheduled it for two weeks out so that Miss SAHM can plan to take an hour or two off from her 'mom' job. Sometimes I seriously HATE this woman.
