I'm going to jump in here & say that this is EXTREMELY poor form to organise a meeting a couple of weeks earlier than one that has already been planned since the beginning of the month.
Even when there were regular meetings held in Chatswood, I'd organise something out West, but they would be a month apart, to allow people to go to both if they wish to.
I just get frustrated... People were bouncing around the day of the week to have the initial meetup. (Skaters). She had flexibility. But she chose Wednesday. Ok. But then they do another follow up, I ask for not Wednesday, but guess what....
Yes, I chose Wednesday, because that suits me! I'm the organiser, so I get to choose. I'm not going to change something for ONE person. If you can't make it, you can't make it! Get over it! And BTW, how dare you say that I had flexibility! Do you know what my current commitments are? NO!
For FIVE YEARS both myself & Hubby were working on Thursday & Friday nights, and guess what night meetups were? Usually a Thursday, so we couldn't make it. Did we whinge & complain? No! We just got on with things & accepted that there will be times where we can't attend functions. We didn't expect others to change things just for us.
AND the worst part in this is that you've posted in my original meetup thread that you are doing this, as if you want to sabotage something that has been planned for weeks.
Well....I for one will not be going! Not because I can't make it, not because I can't get there. Not because it's Parramatta, which is a really BAD place for a meetup as parking can be difficult, and I hate Parramatta! No, simply because I DON'T WANT TO!!!
A more appropriate way to go about it would be to make one a month or so later. It will more likely be better attended and not cause a conflict with people trying to decide which one they will attend.
Exactly!
