… in three weeks. In Chicago. And we live in L.A. And he’s expecting us to be there. :smack:
I’d have to arrange to take time off from work. My wife would have to arrange to take time off from work. We’d have to pull both kids out of school. We’d have to arrange to have the dog boarded. We’d need to get plane tickets and book hotels. We’d need to get the kids new dress clothes. We’d need to get them winter coats! (L.A. to Chicago!) We’d have to back out of another wedding that my wife and I RSVP’d to six weeks ago.
He dropped this bomb on us tonight. Tomorrow my wife is going to call him and tell him that we simply can’t make it work logistically. Two months warning and we could make it happen. But three weeks?!!!
More than once I’ve said, “Oh, I’m sorry, there is a trade show we have to go that’s out of town and we must be there…”. And leave it at that. Some people are simply unreasonable in their own events.
