I feel like I kind of agree with you. If he was doing lifesaving surgery the next day, well yes. But maybe he’s just diagnosing strep throat, which someone else can handle. There are lots of scenarios there. And lots of other jobs that are important. Plus, he seems to be his own boss so he shouldn’t get in trouble.

Guess what - you were wrong. It wasn’t a white man. Gotta stop turning everything into a race issue. There is no crime that is committed by a singular race. But nice try.

I was all excited because I thought Kylie going to that kids prom was just a super cool thing to do. Then I read there was a camera crew and, well, it was just for theater.

Yes that’s bad but I feel like it’s almost par for the course. I feel like it’s rare for a cab driver to not be on the phone although it’s usually hands free at least.

I’ve actually had a couple of Uber drivers play Christian radio - usually music. I don’t want to give them a bad review for it but I won’t review them. I think that is tremendously inappropriate.

Is this for real? She’s frickin four years old. She doesn’t need her attire to make a political statement. It’s a crown and a tutu FFS. This is exactly the type of ammunition anti-liberals need to call us bat shit crazy. Don’t like pink tiaras? Don’t wear one. But your daughter should not be taught that anyone should…

Seriously. Talk about violating.

Agreed. 3 days a month is 36 days a year. Let’s add on another 5 to 10 days of other sicknesses, plus 10 to 15 for vacation. Pretty soon people will be submitting a request to actually come to work rather than have time off.

But you know you have people who abuse it. I had a girl work for me (similar industry, agency) who took about 11 days off in 4 months. Blew through her paid leave. I finally had to write her up for too many out of office events. It’s such a double edged sword. Barely woke up this morning to someone calling out with a…

Bummer she just hasn’t been able to monetize her children as intended.

That is absolutely disgusting and definitely why I do not donate to Gofundmes. So tacky.

I literally said nothing about you paying off your wedding. People go into debt with weddings - that’s everyone’s choice. When you expect wedding guests to pay off your wedding, that’s when the issue comes up. You’ll find that in any etiquette website or book. If your wedding is so expensive that you expect financial…

Uh, you said wanted cold hard cash to pay off your wedding and honeymoon so don’t get surprised at how that was interpreted. I mean, really?

Because it’s called a wedding gift, not a marriage gift. It’s like when you bring a hostess gift to a party. It’s just part of the traditional experience, whether it’s antiquated or not. And it probably is. I think it’s nice to get someone a gift but it shouldn’t be expected in the same way as if you invited them to a…

I went to a wedding recently for two people in their fifties. They had kids and previous marriages and all that. They registered. I thought it was a bit much. I love giving gifts for first time weddings or whatever, but it just felt a little unnecessary since they’ve already done that before.

Yes- very inappropriate to expect people to pay for your wedding. There is no good way to ask for money. You really can’t, you just have to say no gifts and hope for cash but you will likely just get a bunch of stuff you don’t need.

Maybe not popular on this thread but I’m not sure how I feel about asking for money but not having a wedding.

We wish. But those kids believe a higher power made them celebrities. So that won’t happen.

That doesn’t make someone a model. That’s like insinuating there is no skill behind being a model.

I don’t think it’s the world. I think it’s their families that are insisting on it. Even if they don’t move on they probably have a enough money when the 15 minutes are up.
