I’m annoyed with a coworker who wanted to bring her kindergarten and 4th grade sons to my adults-only baby shower.
I’m not upset she asked because how will you know something if you don’t ask? I’m annoyed that she got pissy and took an attitude with me when I said “I’m so sorry but my mom is throwing it as an adults-only event.” Asking is fine, but you have to respect the answer.
I understand your ex-husband bailed on watching the kids on his weekend but I shouldn’t be expected to bend my party for you. My mom is throwing a very traditional, ladies-only, pink-centric, girlie event (with alcohol) that is not geared for school aged boys. Hell, if my husband isn’t invited, neither are your sons lol. I also am not close to this woman and have never met her children. I invited her because I invited all the other women in her work group that sit around her and, since she and I are friendly-work-acquaintances, I thought it would be rude to invite them and exclude her. See what happens when I try and be nice? Lol

@SweetSweetTooth same. I don't even work in an industry where I deal with people too much. But I'm still so over it when I do. Tired of questions and having to go between a bunch of people at once. It's so annoying right now. I just want to work and have people leave me alone.
I swear my side job is being more complicated about maternity leave than my day job. HR and scheduling team need to communicate and not put me in the middle! Yeesh.
I am self employed and set my own hours but so much work and house work! Got more done than I expected but so much to do yet! DH is gone for a few hours so that helps! I am working out and watching a movie as I needed the mental break.
