This person has done our taxes for about 4 years now- she knows lots of added expenses we can take as husband drives a truck as does her husband and they work for the same company. Going to get some pizza yesterday saw the tax lady and stopped to talk a minute. My husband is very shy, keeps to himself a lot and even his family has told me the same, just not forthcoming- I am exact opposite. When we fill out taxes I am always the one speaking up. We have a mixed marriage and yesterday the person asked me how much schooling he had?? I said I don’t know- believe it or not he never wants to be forthcoming about much about him, always saying things like lets talk about something else. Tax lady then asked me if he were "slow" as she had a "sorta retarded grandchild" that lived with her for awhile. This man is no where close to retarded or slow- he is a terrific chef, can build anything he wants, repairs all items around the home, self-taught guitarist, keeps abreast of all news- can discuss anything. She said some blacks not offered the same opportunities to go and finish school like whites. As we were talking her phone at the office rang and I told her I would see her later and left. What I want to know, how should I approach her with her terrible misunderstanding of a guy who hung the moon for me? I really hate to think because of his being naïve, shy, not in your face type of person that he is "slow." Your comments. |
