Money Mart

How do I hate thee, S. Leblanc.
Blonde kid thinks he's a hotshot, thinks he has the world by the balls but he doesn't. He doesn't realize how really stupid he is. He says: "Money Mart helps poor people". Duh. Money Mart helps poor people. The words are hanging in the air like a big neon sign that says "hit me I must be stupid".
He wants me to pay the last 30 bucks of an 80 dollar service charge on cheques that I bounced because he cashed them 3 weeks too late. A mishap I take 75% responsibility for. Gladly giving him a replacement cheque even before he knew they had bounced with the service charge covered. And he wants to continue doing business with them. When he could cash his cheques at no charge on the frontside of Woodbine. Gotta be an angle somewhere for him. The audacity fairly takes my breath away.
And he says; I owe him an extra head a week for putting the bridle on the filly on occasion when he gets to the barn and I am somewhere else, around the corner or at my car. I give him the extra 15 bucks not because I owe him but because I wanted to for a job well done. He's a professional after all; always should be willing to put out his best effort. He thinks its to ensure he puts out his best effort. Nonsense.
So he wants me to give him cash or make the cheque out to Money Mart instead of him. Not in this lifetime or the next I tell him. Why he asks. Because of the principle I say. I want nothing to do with Money Mart; they steal from poor people and are barely legal; laundering money for all kinds of nefarious businesses. He says "fuck the principle". So I say; fuck yourself. I will never give up my principles for a punk like this.
I think his angle is to take the replacement cheque and cash that too; thereby making a 150 percent profit on 2 weeks of work and he'll fuck Money Mart. Hoping they will come after me. I can't believe this. It's the only logical explanation for what he's doing.
The whole thing makes me sick and is ruining my last few days of racing. Worse still; so long as the cheque has not gone through it hangs in the balance on my account and I have to keep extra vigilant about it. Checking it online every day which is a pain in the ass.
Steve says "fuck that guy". He doesn't want me to have any relationship with MM either. If he can't cash a cheque in an appropriate time frame; fuck him.

Footnote:
Cheques have been cashed and the whole sordid thing is behind me.
On to the future and more control over my life and my money. I'll force myself to confront what I should when I should and keep everything neat and tidy.
