Maryland Babies

True Story

This morning, this arse hops between closing doors into the elevator at work and goes "Just tell me you're not going to give birth in here."

She says this to me in front of a number of very serious men in business suits.  Several of them are my colleagues.  One of them is my client.

I told her I wasn't due until February, so if I was going to be having my baby on the way to the fourth floor today she was most definitely the least of my concerns.

 

People are dumb.

  • You should have told her that, now that she mentioned it, you WOULD give birth in the elevator, just to f**k up her day!

    It's like my college days - instead now it's middle aged women instead of 20 something men.

  • ewwww

    I'm so sorry - what a jack ass.

    Was she trying to be funny or was she impaired or something?

    A little bit of both, I think?

    ETA: Not impaired in a sympathetic way.  Just in her a$$hole-ish sense of humor.

  • Great response on your part

  • I envy your quick wit! I get so dumbfounded by people like that and end up nervously laughing and acting like I appreciate their smart ass comments. If you are ever in the same elevator again, clutch your belly and scream, "I think my water just broke!"

    HA! 

    I was kind of proud of my quick comeback!!  Have since worked up a few others since I'm now convinced it's going to happen again.

    This!  I always think of great comebacks too late, so I've started a list of comebacks for all the rude comments I get on how big I am already, just so I'm ready!

  • Maybe we ran into the exact same woman -  I got on an elevator to go to a doctor's appointment and the woman next to me looks at me with terror in her eyes and says, "You look like you are going to pop! You aren't going to have THAT in here, are you?" Everyone else on the elevator just shifted around uncomfortably and I thought I was going to cry. I'm not very quick with mean retorts, so looking back on it, I wish I had said, "Yeah, I'm thinking about it... Would you mind catching him?"
