Ok so for my 16th birthday i arranged for me and 2 of my friends to go to six flags which was kinda a big deal since its far away and expensive for my family. The first friend wasn't able to go because he got mono (reasonable excuse) the second friend texted me the night before at 1:30 AM saying that he couldn't go because he didn't realize he had work the next day (he is also 16 so his job isn't as big of a deal as it would be if he was an adult). But I also made special scheduling so that his job wouldn't interfere. Anyway the big issue was that this is how he found out he had to work, 3 hours after he had told me he was going to sleep he happened to be checking 2 weeks back in his email, and trust me he never checks his email, and noticed an email from his boss saying he had to work the next day. I was very upset about it and told him that he was a dick and that it was irresponsible of him to not double check with his boss that he had that day off. He then tried to turn it on me by saying that I should have given him a weeks noticed so that he could have gotten the day off even though when i had asked him about the specific date we were going he said it was fine and that he could go that day. My question is whether or not it is his fault and if he is a dick or not for doing something like that to me after i made special plans to do something with him on my birthday? Am I being to hard on him by calling him an asshole and stuff over this, or is it justified?
