I'm sorry, Aviza. Is there anyway you can discuss this with your mom and say, I fix stuff for you all the time, can we agree that I won't do so in the middle of my show but will come just as soon as the next commercial? Or, if you ask me to come fix it immediately, you agree to turn to the channel for me so it's there when I get back or record it for me? I think the only way it's not going to continue to upset you is to look for a solution that works for both of you.
My friend is always "asking", rather hinting very aggressively that I will fix computer stuff for her, even though I am not always feeling like doing it at that moment. What bothers me mostly is that she says, I wonder if Seesaw will fix this for me? Instead of outright asking, hey, Seesaw, will you take a look at X for me? I'm in the mode where I'm not going to rescue people from things and if they need help they need to outright ask. So I do nothing unless she outright asks. Anyways, I understand how it feels to be tech support all the time. I have to show her how to use her TV remote daily. Sometimes it's just irritating when it's something so simple.
