A woman has been dubbed as “petty” and “unprofessional” for refusing to buy her colleague a lunchtime meal deal.
The mother had popped out for a walk to “stretch her legs” but before she left the office her colleague, whom she doesn’t like, asked her if she could pick her up a meal deal if she passed a shop.
As she was new to that particular office, the woman opted not to buy a meal deal when she realised the nearest shop which had such an offer was Marks and Spencer.
Their sandwich lunchtime meal deal would have cost the working mum around £5 and crucially she wasn't given any cash before she left the office.
As a “lone parent and broke”, the woman claimed she never had any “real intention” of buying any food or drinks, report Liverpool Echo.
However, she then confided in a colleague that she “didn’t feel comfortable” spending that much of her money without checking with her first - especially as the colleague didn’t offer any cash upfront.
Taking to Mumnset’s popular Am I Being Unreasonable [AIBU] thread to seek advice, the mum penned: “In the office the other day, I was going to stretch my legs.
“A colleague asked me to buy her a chicken ready meal if I went near a shop. I went to Marks and Spencer to buy Percy Pigs.
“The ready meals were about £5. She didn’t offer me money before I went, she’s not in my team and I might not see her in person for months. I would probably have ended up paying for her lunch.
“I also don’t like her, she’s rude and weird and messed with my stuff once because I was using the desk she likes.
“Final point, I’m vegan and don’t want to buy chicken, but I was too chicken (lol) to say that.
“If I liked her, I would have happily bought a meal but I would have said can I get you a veggie one
