AIBU in thinking that this is an outrage.

It has been pissing down here all day. I have Very Important business to attend to but I can't possibly go outside in this weather, my beautiful coat will get ruined.

I have asked repeatedly for my PA to do something about this rain, i.e. turn it off, so I can leave the residence so I can attend to my Very Important business but she keeps insisting that simply isn't possible. I think that, quite frankly, if she keeps up with this attitude, she will soon be looking for employment elsewhere.

So, AIBU, or is the PA?

One of mine has just gone outside in the pissing rain and will come back in whingeing that I didn't turn off the rain for him. It's all my fault apparently.

Yanbu. In defence of your PA though, my PA asked Claude AI today when the last dry day was in Swansea and it could provide an answer.

You are not being unreasonable at all! She should follow you out with an umbrella

You just can’t get the staff these days!

You are absolutely not being unreasonable. Your slave should know better. Ps. You are gorgeous!
