Rant number 273
Some people really don't understand when they have been given something - they really can't complain. We are doing a band job for charity tonight - which I very happy to do.
The thing is though, that the evening was due to start at 8 and was then put back to 8.15. It now emerges they want us here till midnight.
In the nicest possibly way - that really is taking the piss. We are doing the job for free - and you are expecting us to be here for twice a usual concert duration.
A similar situation often comes up at work. You try and do someone a favour - to which you become beholden to it and they carry on complaining. It really doesn't always pay to be nice it seems.
I don't understand why people can't understand when they are asking too much of someone. It's not fair or right to be like this.
Rant over.
Fully agree. I know it is hard, but I would do what I thought fair and eave. They can hardly sack you or refuse to pay you, can they?
ReplyDeleteVery true Dave. It's harder when you are part of a group and you are punting for a bit of sponsorship.
ReplyDeleteIrritating though
