  • I don’t even think the colleague is a dick. OP doesn’t like kids so they wouldn’t want to do this, no problem. Colleage has kids and wants to meet up but has to bring kids, that doesn’t make them a dick. It’s just their circumstance at the moment. I have kids, if I want to go out with friends I either make sure they are OK with it or find someone to watch them. If a friend reached out to me and wants to hang out but I have nobody to watch the kids then I’m not a dick for saying if you want to then I have to bring the kids.

    You always have the right to say no. It doesn’t make anyone a dick.





  • Yeah, because they “didn’t have enough to make any appreciable difference.” I say similar things to people I don’t want to help but I don’t want to upset them. Sorry I don’t have time to do that, having one more person wouldn’t make that big off a difference etc.

    You may very well be right. And that exact reason is the only reason they didn’t send eggs. But I’m guessing their are more than that singular reason.
