minus-squareEm Adespoton@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up0arrow-down1·8 months agoNo, I ignore the whining and consider it may be an issue based on actual behavior, as I originally stated. Hence the “in this case, they might be actually telling the truth” from the original statement. Just because they over-use an excuse doesn’t mean that it isn’t true on the odd occasion. The problem is that so much crying wolf makes it more difficult to tell when it’s real.
