So things were going GREAT! We had the date set, planning was smooth sailing, the reception place was narrowed down and ALL of a sudden there are about 4 "local-yokals" that want to move the date because it's inconvenient for "them"! Ummm... WHERE were you folks MONTHS ago when we got the word out, started the planning and asked for frickin' feedback? And NOW you want to step in and change EVERYTHING?
We took everything into consideration - knowing about 80% of the class will be coming in from out of town, arranging lodging, a suitable locale AND when people would most like to come. THEN, people want to up and change everything? NEVER MIND that we have spent money getting everything straight, arranged and getting things together. And the rumor mill says they're looking at August? That's back to school and off to college time for most! That couldn't be a WORSE time. Especially for travelers.
That's fine. The group there wants to do there own little thing, fine. They live there, can get together many times a year. The bulk of us aren't going to make trips back and forth and we want to ENJOY our time. As a whole, we selected Milk Days Weekend. I'm sorry if you'd rather go to a party locally and think it's an inconvenience to visit with long ago friends, but let's get real. It truly isn't about YOU. It's about everyone and the 130 students that attended along WITH you - not just to 4-6 that want a different date.
ARG! Some people will just never get it...........
