Miss Manners: Scathing Post on Club Social Media Page Begs for a Rebuttal. ‘But What Should We Say?’
Miss Manners advises a polite public response explaining the timing constraints and attempts to resell tickets after a family missed the club bus; social media dispute followed.
- The outing organizer received a scathing social-media complaint the day after the trip, with a club member who bought five tickets accusing them of refusing to wait and implying profit from unused tickets.
- The member had texted to request a 30-minute hold, but the outing organizer said the bus contract set precise departure times and offered to resell the member who bought five tickets.
- The parking-area camera footage reportedly shows the family who missed the bus were nearly an hour late, contradicting claims the organizer refused to wait, and the organizer states, `Remaining silent is not an option, but I am not sorry for any of my actions and want to reiterate that strongly.`
- The post has drawn sympathy in comments from members who saw only one side, while Miss Manners recommends a polite, measured reply explaining the context and efforts to make it right.
- Miss Manners, writing from her syndicated column at Andrews McMeel Syndication, 1130 Walnut St., Kansas City, MO 64106, advises acknowledging harm while standing by actions, reflecting broader corporate-style public replies.
