AIBU? The services this weekend just gone where so busy, if you where on the motorways you likely seen what I seen which was carnage.
At Abingdon services on our way back from Scotland visiting my family the baby changing facilities where out of order. My wife and I decided we would each go to the bathroom and swap holding our 9 week old in the car seat whilst the other got in line.
Whilst waiting on my wife and holding DS in his car seat I decided that my arm was killing so I was going to place him on a high chair just next to the toilets... problem is the high chair I found was about 2 ft inside the little area with the fruit machines. A supervisor appeared like a bat out of hell from god knows where with a raised voice telling me to get out as DS is under age ... granted she wasn't wrong at 9 weeks he is under age but come on.
I was trying to rest my arm, get out of peoples way and not have to put him on the ground with the risk of someone tripping over him or bumping into him whilst I held the seat. Anyway after I made the comment that this was ridiculous, the supervisor just kept repeating "It's the law, get out". I may have then called her a jobs worth and have been asked to leave for being abusive to a staff member (calling her a jobsworth was the abuse).
Am I being unreasonable for thinking this was a complete over reaction? I get that technically yes he is under age but come on there has to be a bit of common sense here or am I just being wishful?
Over to you!
