Why on earth did you agree to that? No wonder you are worn out!

MuffinToSeeHere · 26/04/2023 21:01

Very cheeky but for goodness sake learn to say no! Why on earth would you agree when you're also working and even more so why the fudge did you take them out for pizza?

Honestly I mean this as kindly as I can for the sake of your mental, physical and emotional well-being and for your job please learn to say no and don't be a doormat.

So she's happy to put you out as she doesn't want to take leave. If she asks again say no. If you feeling like it, if she asks again tell her it's her turn to mind all the kids while you work.

I told her so now I need to work late tonight

She said ah would love to help with the kids
Jumped in car and off she went

She could have taken them so I get my work done
