@SweetSouthernMomma08 did you see the lady that knit with her vagina. She held the string up there. Even when she had her period. For real.
Yeah well. . . my vagina just did my taxes. I shoved a laptop computer, a shoebox of receipts and a copy of the IRS taxcode up there and out popped my 1040EZ.

I challenge you on that, @BootsOrHearts. Nothing about that sounds EZ.
WTF microwave, why you no heat my pizza in the middle!? We can put a man on the moon but we can't make a microwave that heats things all the way through.

Wtf bump randomly logging me out. Wtf LO, up basically all night, had a little sleep from 6:30 till 8:30 and now you are full of energy. I am beyond knackered. I am contemplating making coffee (I don't drink it and I duck at making it).

This is exactly what I thought of when I read that.

Right? I hope she's not trying to make a nice white scarf.

I'm glad you posted this NP! I don't mind the spam threads (and I do participate in them from time to time) but I was worried that all of our other regular threads were dying off because of them.
Same complaints as everyone else today: it's cold, it won't stop raining, and my hair will not stop falling out! Also, I had to go to the dentist during lunch today.
WTF Wednesday is one of my favorites, @jyparker925. Also Twatwaffle Tuesday, but with the recent craziness involving the word twat, I refrained yesterday. I'd insert a gif, but I don't think googling twat is going to give me anything that would be SFW.
The girl in the other thread. So much more I wanted to say....
We've just had that conversation over and done with SO MANY TIMES. It's irritating when someone comes in and just assumes they know everything that's been said before. I had to stop reading after page 2.

However, if I was going to get involved, I would set up a scenario just to use this gif.
Wtf stomach virus?! Two out of three kids have it. DS is attempting to potty train also which means I have cleaned up multiple puddles of shit today.....PUDDLES OF SHIT, guise. Barf! Oh yeah, they're doing that too.
LO has thrush for the third time - WTF? She had it at 1 mo, 2 mo and now 4 mo. She is not breastfed and I sterilize all of her nipples and pacifiers every night. Why does it keep coming back? Now I get to give her diflucan again for 14 days which upsets her tummy and makes her fussy. Pair this with the 4MW and the beginning of teething and it should make for a fun 2 weeks! And on top of that we're currently packing up our house and moving in with my parents for 5 months. I will need all the wine. And whatever other alcoholic drink I can find.

Mine today is I had a job interview scheduled at 12. The manager who set it up with me picked the time. I woke up early, spruced myself up and showed up 10mins early. He wasn't there. The lady working told me he would be right back. I waited.......40mins. Then this girl walks up to me with her phone tells me he is on the phone for me. He tells me he was making an errand and got called to the corporate office and now has no idea when he will be back to do my interview. I should go home and he will call me when he gets back to the store and I can come back and do the interview then. So its now 2pm my time and I still have not received a call. I am thinking this was a bust day. I am conflicted on if he calls if I should go in for the interview or not. I don't know if this is typical behavior but I don't know that I want to work for someone like this. Also the fact that he clearly does not value my time kind of rubs me wrong. So now here I am sitting at home in my interview clothes waiting.........WWYD ladies?

I was fighting the same battle with my LO, not breasted, sterilize bottles, etc. does your LO fall asleep while drinking her bottle? I was told sometimes they get it from milk sitting in their mouth. Mine does this.
I haven't been back to the bump since... December? Started lurking a few weeks ago and sick of lurking soo...
WTF daycare provider? You post on FB "Being a part time mommy of 3 is hard!" You are NOT a part time Mommy to my child. You're his babysitter... WTF...?

umm, wow, yeah WTF is right. providing daycare =/= being a mom. I'd be actually angry if anyone who watched my kid said that.
WTF self! Quit eating everything in sight! I swear you're getting bigger, not smaller, you need to stop, like yesterday.
I got this same problem, I keep blaming it the last few days on the fact that my AF is coming But yes I eat all the things and then it makes me sad and when I am sad I eat so its a vicious cycle!

Everything @megsswm said. You never know -- it could turn out to be great! And hey, you got out of the house on your own for awhile which is more than I can say for myself this week!

In my industry "fires" come up often, and unfortunately, we often have to reschedule candidates or leave them waiting for long periods of time, often at the last minute. It's often outside of our control. When I interviewed at my current company one person missed their window and another started 30min after the scheduled time. At my level I interview and I am guilty of doing this, or being asked to take someone else's slot and not being able to thus leaving a candidate with 45min of downtime. What matters is how the company and manager handles it. I would give him the benefit of the doubt, but now you know to ask questions about how the specific role you are interviewing for would be in terms of fluidity or how dynamic the environment and day to day work can be, is it seasonal, etc.. Unfortunately people always say that it means the interviewer doesn't value their time, but remember there's a ton of other external factors and pressures he is dealing with right now outside of the interview.
5 cycles of "TTC" - 3 intentional, 2 not so intentional. 5 BFPs. My rainbow arrived 10/15/14. TFMC 08.02.13 at 19+ weeks. Everyday I grieve for my little Olive.

If he calls back for the interview I will go in and give it, weather I would take the job or not I am rusty on my interviewing skills because I have not had to do this for almost 4 years. It will help me more than hinder me at this point. I will be sure to ask him questions about the day to day inside operations of this company. I understand he is short staffed so I am giving him the benefit of the doubt. I just have that "dressed up and no where to go" feeling. I don't think this is his normal behavior, the other employees there seemed shocked he left me "hanging" for so long. But with the perks of this job even if it was I might be tempted to take it while I look for something else in the meantime. I won't lie were financially tight, I should have went back to work quite awhile ago but just couldn't force myself to do so and I also had a medical reason that I no longer have. So I guess we see if he calls me for the interview or not and then go from there. Thanks for your advice.
@Mac2588 - Julia falls asleep drinking her bottle every night at bedtime, and usually in her MOTN feeding as well. Maybe we need to start trying to keep her awake while eating so hopefully the thrush doesn't come back after this round of meds. I'll try anything because I'm over this damn infection!

But you should totally read until the last response because I posted a picture of little guy eating spare ribs. I think its pretty darling! @mamagplus4chix, you are always right on point with everything, great response to her.

Does your LO get the white junk on her tongue? My LO gets all bottles, and I sterilize but I've noticed he has tons of white junk on his tongue. Not really sure if it's thrush...what does it look like?
WTF ...."New" Receptionist! You've been with the company 7 months now... YOU CAN NO LONGER PLAY THE NEW CARD! Sorry, but you're no longer "just learning" you're dumb... It really grinds my gears to answer 5+ questions a day that I've already taught you 5x... ughh If I was your boss *CANNED* WTF....
I'm a day late, but WTF Cash. I didn't realize how annoying and judgy "don't trust your pedi, research" sounds. Please tell me you guys know I was coming from a good place and not trying to be the mayor of beavernuggetville. Anyway, I've added some people to my post it after reading the solids thread. Good thing they don't go here and never interact with us EVER anyway.
@Cashingn2 - I think that comes with the "reg vs. non reg" territory. I understand that you look at research and present it in a caring, thoughtful way. Not in a condescending way like it was presented there. Also, you present it in a "here's what it says here, but if your special snowflake needs _____ I understand that all babies are different, so long as it has been worked out with the baby's best interest in mind".
Wtf @sarelnad you still haven't told us what medical training you have? How about you riddle me that before you say another word. We don't take kindly to people making blind judgements on our board. So either tell us what godly credentials you have or, ya know....
@MGalles - the white stuff only on the tongue is often just formula residue. Julia's thrush is white patches all over the inside of her lips and some patches on the inside of her cheeks. They don't come off easily and if they do, they're red underneath.
@Cambury108 I would not go back to that interview. I agree with you, he does not value your time. That happened to me one time and I honestly couldn't believe it and didn't accept the job.
