Geez, lady

I have this coworker. I would say she's a friend, we confide in each other about work and non work related things. She's generally a really nice person and we get along. I went and helped pick her wedding dress and to her first alteration appointment.

Ok I can't say everything I really want to but I will just say she has a real chip on her shoulder about where we work and it is super annoying. She's just so negative.

That being said, her wedding is coming up and that's another source of annoyance. She passed out STD's like 2 or 3 months ago. They are planning to throw her a work shower. She told me the girl who is planning it convinced her to have it because "hey, that means that many more gifts".

The wedding is out of town so there's a slim chance of attending, but I would have looked into it since I actually get PTO now. However, no invitation. We were talking today and she was saying how she is over wedding stuff and she didn't want to send out anymore invitations to people that she knew weren't coming anyways. So basically, she just assumed who was and wasn't coming and mailed invitations only to those she thought would come. Alrighty then.

So I'm sure I'll get this shower invitation eventually but ya know, I'm really freaking broke. Andplusalso I don't feel like buying a gift for someone who is clearly gift grabby. Furthermore, for a wedding I am apparently no longer invited to.

 

Well hmph!

Re: Geez, lady

  • You should donate money to some charity in their name. I wonder what her reaction would be. 
  • Wait....so she gave you a save the date but then decided not to invite you to the wedding?  I'd be pissed too!  I'd get her something small and go to the shower since you still have to work with her every day, but I'd be super pissed.  Honestly, if you thought you might go to the wedding I would even say something to her about how you had been saving the date and you're sorry you'll miss the wedding.

  • Woah, I just got the shower email invitation. I dont think the bride is even friends with half the people on this list, let alone invited them to the wedding. The shower is next Friday night so I don't think I can go because of no babysitter.

    What a shame.

     

  • Not only did you get a STD, but you also helped her pick out her dress and you went to her alterations appointment and you're not invited?

    WTF

  • When you went out dress shopping and for her alterations, did she at least take you out for lunch/dinner/snack?
