BTA, the trick to add a teardrop to a pad that is not directly on the way of your 45 degree trace (your square pads) is to break the trace in the middle and zig-zag to another 45 degree trace that noaw has the target pad on its way.
(Or, in case you do not mind using non-45 degree angles, just to go to "any angle" routing mode and draw a direct trace between the two pads).
People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
