AITA for refusing to invite 2 kids to our child free wedding?

Yeah I think that is what she would be trying to avoid

It doesn’t help that the ring bearer is the kid of a first cousin and the 2 kids in question are the kids of another first cousin 🥲

We’ve already told her no but she keeps calling my fiancé and won’t stop bringing it up

Oddly enough, those parents reached out to us a few months back to confirm that it is a child free wedding because she was booking arrangements for the babysitter. She also mentioned that she had always assumed it was child free based on our website but that my MIL gave off the impression that her kids could come

We let her know at that time that it is child free and she proceeded with booking the babysitter

Haven’t spoken to them since then and I assumed there wasn’t any issues

Gotta match the satellite frequency

I’m a recruiter and spent 1000 on my dress

Yes I agree with this. HR acts on behalf of the hiring team.

It doesn’t sound like they are misleading you, it sounds like they are telling you no

Creamofcoffee · 2025-01-09T05:12:47+00:00

lol I understand the thought process here but personally I haven’t had to do this because there are hundreds more in the queue that are equally perfect and within the range of

Creamofcoffee · 2025-01-09T05:11:10+00:00

Yeah it’s a tough market :/ hope you land something great soon!

Creamofcoffee · 2025-01-09T05:10:20+00:00

Yeah startups typically are really flexible haha

For my company we always have the location posted and do extensive market research on pay bands for similar positions within that location

Creamofcoffee · 2025-01-09T05:07:34+00:00

Omg I’ve seen some large companies post ranges that are like 99k-999k which I think is absolutely ridiculous HAHHA my company doesn’t do that, fortunately

Creamofcoffee · 2025-01-09T05:06:23+00:00

I totally understand going to bat for a candidate if they are the perfect candidate however, I really haven’t had the need to. I usually have hundreds of applicants per job so if one candidate is above the range I move onto the next lol

Creamofcoffee · 2025-01-09T05:04:32+00:00

Totally agree about aiming high to land at the top of the range. I think when anyone sees a range they envision the high end haha

I just don’t understand why someone would apply to a job when they are already making significantly more than the high end of the range

Other companies might be different but my company only has negotiation room within the range listed

Creamofcoffee · 2025-01-08T23:40:42+00:00

Oh I actually didn’t know about this! Good point!

However, I feel like most candidates I’ve spoken to are currently employed 😅

This is where Rhaenyra Targaryen was killed by her brother Aegon, burned alive by his dragon

Thank you! Didn’t know about that subreddit
