I sware I am about to go postal on these idiot women at work. If one more moron makes fun of the way I walk and make comments about it in front of everyone, I am going to put their heads on a stick!!! It is sooo annoying and Im tired of it. I cant help that I am 8 months pregnant, with feet the size of tires, a watermelon between my legs, horrid back and hip issues, and pelvic pain that wont quit! LEAVE ME ALONE! I am tired of being nice when they make these annoying comments. What is a good quick "comeback" to let them know i dont appreciate being made fun of and Im sick of it? Its bad enough that I am in pain, tired,cranky and dont want to be here. I wish people would just leave me alone.
Re: I need a comeback!!
Just tell them to STFU. I find that always works well.
The best I can think of that won't make people think you're a b!tch is something like, "I almost forgot I was pregnant! Holy cow. Thank you SO much for reminding me."
I guess you could make it a little more crude: "Woah newmom2londyn. You're waddling more and more every day. It looks so uncomfortable." "Yeah, DH and I had some crazy love last night and I'm still sore." If you wanna be extra snotty, add "Oh, wait. That's not it. I'm PREGNANT!" to the end of it.
Or you can say, "You think THIS looks uncomfortable? Maybe I should go into labor at work and see how THAT makes you feel."
Just laugh and let them know they will have their turn.
This is why I love being out of work! I was so sick of the comments!!!!
I never could say anything back to them, they were all my employees and HR would have a probem with it... which isn't fair IMO. They can say crap all day about my swollen ankles/feet/toes, my waddle, the comments on are there twins in there... and I can't mention their big fat pouches that are hanging over their lady parts, which they haven't seen in years!! ugh!
hey, i just thought of one, if they're one of the aformentioned ladies, just let them know that in the end, you'll see your feet again! I'd say lady parts, but then you'd probably be fired! Althought I would love to say that!!! gl
