My first ever foray into AIBU! I work in events management and I have been asked to help out at one of the company's evening events, which would involve me being in attendance until gone midnight and then an hour plus journey home. This is not one of 'my' events (which is how events management workload is often divided). OH is also at a work event that evening that was arranged prior to me being asked. Would it be reasonable for me to say I will only work at the event if my childcare bill (probably north of £100 as it involves a nursery pickup) is covered as a business expense?
I am not contractually obliged to work on this event, but the contract wording is quite vague ('any other duties', etc). Not really sure what to do
AIBU?
To expect work to pay for my childcare?

You took a position in events. What did you think was going happen?
