that's not true. like i already posted, i told dor in im that i was bringing them, and she said, "ok, great." giving NO indication that she didn't want that. if all of you knew that, then she could have easily have mentioned something at that time.
also, you all KNOW i have sara with me. i said before i even left for the east coast that she'd be coming to help with me with everything.
you did not apologetically ask if i would consider taking her home. it sounded like a demand. it wasnt "could you consider?" it was "can you take her home? i know this sounds bitchy" and "erin already told nick to go home" that is what i got. and those aren't my interpretations, that is what you said. now, the only reason your tone sounded different to me was because you seemeed almost hesitant to ask, and my only interpretation of that is that you knew it would piss me off.
and no, i wouldnt have gotten pissed off if you had brought people because it would have meant getting the work done faster.
also, it seemed like the main reason being thrust at me was itd be "chaotic" which would be the case if we had a group of monkeys. but these were people, and they were people that were already there. also, half of the group said they didn't mind, meaning half of them did. so how does that make it majority rule? and obviously, david was there. when was he part of the exclusive "group?" not to mention the fact that i wasnt told about it until a couple of hours before the bag stuffing. just another thing that the majority planned and the gift bags are just a "little" detail? okay.
and while we're busy being honest, let's mention the fact that it was decided that i was the main claim jumper contact, so i should contact and confirm, but i wasnt told until two days before i was supposed to do it. i told val okay because she was the only one to mention it to me, although it seemed a group decision had been made. then, i get a call from dor saying she has a thousand things to do, and could i be so nice and take this responsibility off of her hands. i felt like it was known that i was going to call, seeing as how the decision had been made not long before, and this was my reminder in the guise of could you do this for me? and the tone was enough to make me sock someone in the face. if you're worried about me not doing something i was told to do :B then just ask me if 've done it. don't pass it off like it is this big, extra responsibility. and fyi, i had already called by the time you had called me.
