[QUOTE="LauraH, post: 747060, member: 22877"] More or less, yes. He'll get on a good track for a short time and then start doing things to sabotage himself. When he first went to Chicago it took him less than two days to find a good job at a major bank and within two months had been promoted from customer service to fraud analyst. That's when he started messing up. He took a leave of absence under FMLA to get treatment for hepatitis. During that time he received only half his normal pay and my sister loaned him $1500 to fill in the gaps. He made one $20 payment towards that debt and never made another attempt to repay her. Two weeks after he returned to work he took another leave of absence to go to rehab. He left rehab after one week but instead of going back to work he took a three week "vacation" since he had been approved for four weeks. After that he never worked more than a week at a time before taking yet another LOA until he reached the limit of how much time he could use for one year and then started staying out without pay. He eventually lost that job, and then his apartment. And that's just one story among many. I can't begin to fathom what makes someone so determined to destroy their own life, and then to blame everyone else and take as many others down with him as he possibly can. But that's exactly what it seems like he's been doing and continuing to do. [/QUOTE]
