I'm just wondering...

... Am I bitch for thinking that if you are a professional/self-employed person, that goes to different businesses for your job, that its cool to drag your kid with you!? When I say kid, I mean a child under the age of, oh, let's say 7. I understand there are circumstances that come up & you may need to drag the kid with you yet what if you worked in an office building or a factory? You couldn't take your kid to work with you. I also find it VERY unprofessional when you are trying to make an impression with someone that you can't find a baby sitter or day care to watch your kid for those few hours you're away???

Like I said, I understand shit comes! For instance, when LBS & I were younger, we would sometimes have to go to school with my mom. At first, it was boring as HELL yet I just finally sucked it up & started to help out around the classroom or see if any other teachers needed help yet I was old enough to help out! What input is a 4-5 year old going to make to his interior designer mom?!?!

So seriously, am I a bitch for thinking/feeling this way???

Me.

I wouldn't go as far as saying you are a bitch. However, it does depend on the circumstance, things do come up. Is she s single mom? Do you know if she tried to find a sitter? etc.

If this is an ongoing thing i can see it as a problem. But if it was a one time happening (and I apologize if you mentioned that and i missed it), then you might want to let it go.

i love you liz!

Well, here's the thing- this was her 2nd time here. Her excuse the 1st time was that she didnt have a sitter. Ok, understandable. This time, there was no apolgy for bringing the kid, bugged his mom & my boss while they were trying to figure out where to put furniture, spilled his drink on the floor & THEN had to take the kid with them to find/purchase furniture.... IMHO, that's just WRONG!

So yeah, this was my way to not only vent but to see if i was actually being a bitch.

Thanks for the response!
