Am i wrong to feel bad


Ok ladies, might be mad but here goes...

Just back from the bank. Met my other halfs uncle who with with his little boy.
We were chatting away and i asked him if his wife was working today, hense the reason he had the baby.
I said, 'so you are on babysitting dutie today then?' Not meaning anything by it, its just a saying, he didnt seem offended by it ither, butThe lady behind the counter turns and shouts
'HE IS NOT BABYSITTING, HE IS LOOKING AFTER HIS CHILD FOR GOD SAKE!'
i was mortified and she has made me feel so bad
I went back to the car, and my hormones being the way they are, cried my eyes out

Was it mean saying that....?!

Mean lady!!!!



I banged into someone coming out of the loos at work today. I said sorry and she just tutted and strutted off. I too was verging on sobbing!!
We're just hormonal.
And they're just grumpy miserable women! Sod them.

It wasn't any of her business anyways! Obviously the father knew it was just a saying and you were kidding around with him, she had no right to get involved.

Gees, that is horrid. What is with people!?

Do not feel badly as you have every right not to. This person works in the bank? I would have asked to speak to her manager.

Nothing out of line with what you said. The lady who said it should piss off and mind her own business.
