[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At first I couldn't understand why OP couldn't simply explain to his wife why this trip didn't make sense but given some of the responses on here, I am starting to see the problem. Not all business travel is the same. This trip sounds like a drag. People are getting caught up in the attitude in some of the early posts - "she will be on vacation while I'm working" and aren't listening to the logistics.[/quote] OP have you tried asking her what she expects this trip to be like/what she wants from the trip? That might help her get to "this isn't going to work logistically" on her own, rather than her feeling like you just shut her ideas down. Or maybe she would be happy vacationing in the same region as you while you work. Or maybe you can plan a non-working vacation together at a mutually agreeable time and place.[/quote]
