WDPT?

I have to choose where to go tonight. DH got asked 2 weeks ago to be in his brothers vow renewal. (Long story- they got married 3 months ago so they're not calling it a wedding)

I registered for a work meeting 6 weeks ago. (I'm in direct sales) The meeting is free. If I don't attend, I miss training and a free product for next selling season.

We found out Sunday that the rehearsal/rehearsal dinner is tonight. I'm not in the wedding. Should I skip my meeting to attend the rehearsal?

Are you commission? How much would the product cost you other wise? Personally, Id go to the meeting if it meant more sales in the future. Rehearsal dinners are boring.

@persephonerose - I don't know what the product is. They don't tell us. And yes. I'm commission.

I guess I feel like it's expected I go, cuz ya know, family. But if DH wasn't a groomsman, we wouldn't be there.

Ehhh...depending on how benefitial this meeting is to you/your job, I'd say skip the rehearsal and go to the meeting. Esp since you're not in the wedding.

@fredalina- that's what DH said at first. But he keeps asking me what I'm doing, then says it's fine lol. I haz the guilt.

I'd go to the meeting if it is important for your future sales numbers.  I don't think rehearsal dinners are that important.

Thanks everyone. I went to the meeting and it will help my business a ton. No drama that I missed dinner.
