Because they don't like her!

The workers were arranging a fun night out but they wanted to avoid telling one member of staff. I was very uncomfortable about this and I didn't know how to broach it. The unliked person received a phone call saying that a loved one had died.

I stuck my neck out and said to the other staff that I wasn't happy with this arrangement and to imagine how hurt this person is going to be.

The bereavement just made it easier to say!

What would you have done? conversing

Rain are you saying they made it up that a loved one had died?
If so that was mean and totally wrong to do.

I would think that this person that is not liked would know that no one likes her and would not even want to attent

Is she really that hard to like?

She will find out the truth... I think thats pretty unpleasant stuff...how will she feel being the only one not invited....confused
@ BC
Noooo! It was the unliked person who had been bereaved. Very sad!
@ Cal
I thought these were nice people but when I objected they came at me like weasels!
Always stand along side what is right(as you did).....I commend you....
Why is she sooo unpopular....confused
Thanks Nam but I could see another option and I was in shock that the others couldn't see it then one person said. We're all so mad because we know you're right!

Left me feeling quite depressed. crying
Nam that should have read 'couldn't see another option'.
@ Calypso

Could be a class issue!
Said work colleauges sound like a pretty immature bunch,maybe theyre energies would be better employed in learning how to get along with this lady,or at least be tolerable of her to keep a harmonious working relationship....I also would have been uncomfortable in youre situation...detective conversing
I would've gone to her and tell her that they are lying they just don't want her to mingle with them

If she's matured enough she'd keep her distance but she isn't then she'll confront them but as long as I've told the truth I believe I'm free

Would you like a job? lol handshake
That was sad enough to have lost a loved one.
So the others took advantage and arranged a "Fun" night out?
Leaving her to deal with her grief alone?

scold crying
They were even annoyed that she needed to go home. Pretty heartless, I thought!
Obviously what they did to her was wrong in so many ways.
@Cap. Not my kind of party but I get your point!
She probably knew what was Going down... Knows shes not liked ...possibly more intelligent than the rest of them which they cant stand and she invented that story to make it easy for the gutless wonders involved so they would not have to face the drama of telling her some fake excuse not to Go out with them.
@Nicefeet.
She's a very caring and observant person so I really don't get it. It was true about her loss and very sad and I think if she felt left out she'd get very interested in joining us and tell us so.

I say 'us' loosely as I won't be going unless she's invited. boxing
Rain.....I would have left the party and finding you like minded dragged you too alongwith and the two were dropped to her place .....she welcomed us or not...no consideration... innocent
No one wants to be where they're not welcome.

I'm sure she doesn't know this is going on. I will take a bereavement card in tomorrow. She was devastated at her loss! who wouldn't be!

I'll invite her in front of them; perhaps that's the way forward. peace
One must stand up for right...no matter how uncomfortable you are....the point is to be indignant and not uncomfortable....Judgement is judgemnet no matter what you call it.frustrated
Calli, very well put!! thumbs up
Oh! I missed the point....you are brilliant...yeah! that's rather a better idea....bravo!thumbs up
iotaoo. There have been many miss interpretations on this blog. I'm afraid I haven't made it very clear as I was a bit upset. I'll finish this soon as it's a rather personal subject. Thanks for your input. handshake
