Ok so I halfass got dragged into this thing between some friends of mine, and I figure it was interesting enough to post up.

Backstory
There's Couple XY, Wife X is orig from Texas, Husband Y has lived all over, they both lived in NYC for the past several years. Wife X is 31, Husband Y is 34. Girl Z, 27, grew up in Syracuse and North Carolina, and ended up working in NYC. She met them while working with Wife X about three years ago, and became very good friends with Couple XY. Girl Z went through a lot of tough times and Couple XY helped her out. Like family almost. Wife X got a job at NASA, followed by Husband Y, (then me), then Girl Z. I work with Husband Y & Girl Z, Wife X works in another building.

Story
So Couple XY just moved into a new house. Myself and Girl Z helped out a ton for a solid week or so before their movers came to get the big stuff. Wife X was completely stressed out the whole time and needed Girl Z around for support. Well Girl Z had some friends (she sees ~4-5 times per year) come into town this past Friday night, to hang out for the weekend. The big move was Saturday, and Girl Z decided to get up early to go help Couple XY while her friends were still asleep, but the rest of the day she hung out with her friends. When her friends left on Sunday early afternoon, Girl Z went straight over to help again.

Result
Couple XY feels like Girl Z has wronged them because entertaining some "lesser" friends was not as important as being there for them during their time of stress. Couple XY is so upset they're questioning their friendship with Girl Z. Girl Z is upset by this.

Are X and/or Y engineers or otherwise well-paid? If so, they should just hire some damn movers to do everything next time.
