I travel for my job, a handful of times a year, usually for 2-3 days. I try to arrange these to minimise family disruption. To help schedule the trips, we have a family app so we can all see what's going on at any time.
I've recently been given more responsibility. This means a trip twice a year that is longer than normal. The first trip involves being away Sunday - Friday. DH already had an appointment for the preferred trip dates, he said it was ok for him to miss it. I put my trip into the app and booked my flights.
There was an opportunity to extend by one day, coming home Saturday night, and basically sitting on a warm beach for the day. But this clashed with the FA cup final and DH had managed to get tickets, so i declined.
He's just asked me whether the time of my trip in the app is my flight time or time i need to leave. I replied it's when i need to leave. He goes on to say great, because he's got tickets to the Brighton game that day which is 3pm but he should be back in time. I look at him. I'm leaving at 7am not 7pm. The app is 24 hours so it's obvious it's 7am.
He's now sulking that he can't go.
Can i tell him to grow up? I understand he's disappointed, and potentially out of pocket, but the whole bloody point of the app is to check it before making plans.
