Justus,
One of my co-workers is being married this spring. She has announced that none of her co-workers will be invited to her wedding.
That's fine with me because I understand the expense involved with a large guest list. We are not the best of friends but we are all close at work. We've never gone out outside of work so not attending her wedding wouldn't be a sleepless night either. However, she is strongly hinting that I should do her a favor and host a bridal shower for her -- a co-workers' party.
Well...... I'm having mixed feelings because on one end, if we're not important enough to be invited (not to say we have to go) then why should we throw her a party for something we can't attend?
But then on the other hand.....with finances being tough, as coworkers who are cordial and close, should it be expected to give to one of our own??
What do you think?
