The boy's report sparked a surprising reaction from some netizens who were shocked by the situation.
Absence on the birthday was costly
The anonymous Reddit user said he received an invite to a friend's birthday through the Events tab of Facebook. On the occasion, he confirmed his presence without paying much attention to the details, just leaving it aside.
However, when the day of the event arrived, the young man didn't even remember to attend, especially since he was out of town. To his surprise, in the following days he started facing big problems related to this.
In the report, he explained that, between the time he confirmed his presence and the day of the event, the organizer apparently collected an amount from each participant who had confirmed his presence. He found that other people had also confirmed and failed to show up.
However, the young man had completely forgotten about the party due to the health problems he was facing. He mentioned that he was away from work for an extended period of time due to the complications he was experiencing.
The real problem started when the boy received the amount he should have paid for having confirmed his presence at the event. According to him, the value was exorbitant. This sparked a split of opinion among Reddit users.
While some were impressed with the courage to charge someone who didn't even attend the event, without even asking the reason for the absence, others argued that the young man should have carefully read the information before confirming his presence.
Regardless of differing opinions, the young man's story serves as a reminder to all of us of the importance of carefully reading contracts, invitations and other documents.
However, in this specific case, it is worth mentioning that it is necessary to consider the understanding and empathyin the face of unforeseen situations that may occur in people's lives.
