Is it me?!?!

i am in the middle of moving out of my apartment. my lease is up the 31st. over a month ago i offered some of my furniture to a coworker whose son is living in off-campus housing. He wanted to come last Friday night and I couldnt accomodate him as I was going to be moving things to my new place and I didnt want to sit around waiting on him. that night I suggested he come tonight (tues. 7/2. I have been moving all weekend and my mothers car broke down and she needed my car for the day today(tuesday 7/2. Well i need my car back to finish my move and tonight I am getting a ride to my moms house to get my car. As a result, I said I wouldnt be able to meet her son until later tonight (10pm ish) or another night. She said her son works nights and couldnt meet any other night. I offered to meet him in the morning (she said hed be too tired after working all night). I said well he isnt working tonight so he could meet me tomorrow morning but he staying at girlfriends tonight so that why later tonight wont work or in AM. I also offered to leave work to meet him during the afternoon tomorrow or any other day this week. None of that worked. I then offered to drive the things to her house. She said that wouldnt work b/c her son was going to take only the things that he liked and she didnt want to be stuck with junk. I am a little peeved at that statement. I had assumed that he was taking all the things that I had left. I was unaware that he was coming over to "browse". I would have had all that stuff donated or thrown away by now. Now I have a ton of stuff to do in the next 3 nights that i didnt have to do 20 mins ago. To top it all off, she is acting as though I am wrong for not being available tonight and is giving me a huge attitude. Am I the wrong one here? Am I missing something?

Any advice would be helpful...sorry for the vent!

If he's too busy to go get free when free is available, Donate IT! Just tell the co-worker its okay, really a truck will come haul it away. You arn't a yard sale on demand! lol

If he can't make time to get free furniture then he really doesn't want anything -- and if he wants to browse he can go to GoodWill or a garage sale. I agee to donate everything you have left.

Too bad your co-worker wasn't more helpful -- if she wanted him to have the stuff she could have made arrangements to get over to your place and pick things up.

Hope you got everything done and are moved now!!
