JUST KIDDING! I just had one of those "weird pregnancy touch" stories to share.
So, as some may recall, I'm a preschool teacher. We have this one parent that is really weird and rude and I just don't really like her all that much. Anyway when I was ten weeks she slammed her sweaty hand into my upper stomach and was like "ouuuu babyyy!" and I backed away, cringing, and told her I didn't really like people touching me, it made me uncomfortable. I guess after I walked (ran) away she expressed to her child's teacher how that was rude of me and she was mad. Uh, no you slamming your hand into my ribcage was rude! Well yesterday she comes up to me and puts one hand on my back and the other on my bump and starts rubbing, I probably turned 3 shades darker and involuntarily clenched my fists.Once again she got offended and wouldn't shut up to two other teachers how rude I was being for not letting her molest my body!
So, today she called my boss (who is also pregnant) and told her how "weird" I was being and that she had just texted me and I was being so rude to her... Uhh, crazy you don't even have my phone number!!!! So, I said I was going to make shirts that said... "Preschool Name // Please don't touch the pregnant women" because obviously me telling her TWICE that I don't like being touched wasn't enough!
Re: Everyone is being mean!
You are totally the out of line one there :eye roll:
what did your boss say? I would have freaked and started yelling intruder or something.
Gah.
My boss just rolls her eyes... she doesn't like her unwelcome touches either. I'm thankfully very close with both of my bosses, so even if I had been out of line, they wouldn't blame me.
Her son's teacher can see her walking to the building, so she just hollers to me that she's coming and I hide in the back until she leaves. I'm not in a class for the last hour & a half, I work the front desk, so I just doddle around my empty class til she leaves. NO MEANS NO!
This made me laugh because I'm sure it's full of cellulite!
This. I can't understand why people think that pregnancy equals an open invitation to violate personal space. You have every right to say that touching of any kind by anyone is unwanted and that should be respected.
Oh man I really want to know how that text conversation went...
Yuck! What a wack-job. I can't even imagine how I would respond to this. I seriously started wondering if this could be considered illegal. I mean if you've told someone to btf off and they don't there has to be something you can do.
yuck. yuck. yuck. I'd literally be asking my boss if I could tell her to get the f--- off next time.
