AIBU to think that she's just taking the piss!

[nothingbreakslikeaheart]

A colleague at work only lives about half hour walk from where we are but just lately she has been asking for a lift home. Now I didn't mind at first as I thought it was a one off, but this getting quite frequent now where she's asking if I can drop her off 10 min before our shift finishes. She's asked me again and I said fine but this is the last time I'm doing it by the way! She looked a bit upset/moody. I felt really guilty because I am not usually someone who sounds or acts like a bitch and always do anything to help people.

It stems from what happened in the past. I had a colleague in my other job who kept texting me, asking me to pick her up and drop her off all the time. I asked for petrol money (colleague in my previous job) but she said she didn't have any as she spent it all on going holiday. At this point I just had enough that when she messaged me to pick her up/drop her off, I completely ignored her text and she ended up being late for work.

AIBU to think that it is their responsibility to get themselves to and from work, not mine or anyone else who drives! I have a car but I pay to run it and keep it and taking you and/or picking you up to go work costs me not only money but time! I sound horrible but goodness me it really gets on my nerves...

Never a borrower or a taker be.

Just say no and stick to it.

As a none driver who lives a 30 minute walk from work, I'd say she's a massive CF.

There are a few colleagues who will occasionally offer me a lift but I never expect it and am quite capable of getting myself home.

When i didn't have a car i used to walk almost 30 mins to and from work.... walking home was all uphill.
My best friend at work used to drive a few mins past my street but i never asked her for a lift. If it was chucking it down or snowing she would ask if i wanted dropping off which was very kind but i never asked and never expected it.
I am in the yanbu camp.

An adult is quite capable of getting around on their own.... are there no buses she can get?

How often is your colleague asking? Has she offered you any money if it's regularly? And how far out of your way are you going?

Keep saying NO. No 'sorry', either. 'Made him late', my arse. He's an adult. It's his responsibility to get to work on time.

"A colleague at work only lives about half hour walk from where we are but just lately she has been asking for a lift home."

This seems to indicate the colleague usually walks.

No, it doesn't, Databreach. It just indicates the length of the walk if OP were to walk it. And "from where we are" may be OP's address, not work.
