The weirdest place to go on vacation, your kid's workplace
A man shared how their family helper approached them to ask if her mother could come for a holiday to their home...Eek!
On the list of the most awkward things a person could ask you, this might be rated as one of the top things.
A man headed to social media to ask people if he was being unreasonable over their helper's outrageous request. He explained that their helper visits home once every two weeks and sees her mother.
But she came to his family, sharing that her mother wanted to vacation. Nothing is wrong with that; it is just a helper sharing her mother's plans with her employers. But it was then that things took a turn for the awkward.
The helper then informed the family that her mother would like to come to stay with them for her holiday.
This would be the ideal time to play the 'crickets' sound if this were a movie set. How can one approach this request without sounding terrible?
It's one thing to have a working arrangement with your helper, but then welcoming a member of their family to stay with you for a 'holiday' sounds absurd. The TikToker was shocked by their helper's brazen attitude in asking as if it was expected.
He ranted, saying there was no emergency and nothing wrong with their home; she just wanted to stay with them for a holiday. It was just the sheer audacity over the way she asked, like it was acceptable, that upset him.
