True, but she obviously didn't give a shit. As part of my staff, I had taken her there a number of times and she knew I went there all the time [ Reply | More

I wouldn't add any drama. You wouldn't envite her to a party you were throwing. If you start talking shit at work they are going to think that you wanted to go. [ Reply | More
