[quote=Anonymous]Wow. I've now seen this first hand. I mean, I know if your kid gets sick last minute (and you call in advance to apologize) or something. But this weekend I really did see a terrible thing: Parents had prepared a party for eight kids. ONE parent RSVP-ed (that was me, apparently). A week before the even, mum calls up non-responders, and five say yes. Guess how many total came? THREE. This is really a shitty thing to do, folks. Seriously. If we managed our work lives like this, we'd be fired. This is more important than work: this is the reason why we work--to be functioning, polite, productive members of society. I felt sad for the mum of the five year old. I don't think she cared that there were three, but she did care that her kid was treated so cavalierly. It's hard not to take it personally. Has this happened to anyone else? I was astounded.[/quote]
