  • @AdorkablePixie I am in the 3rd tri this week and I wish I could tell you it got better for me, but it didn't! I only made it half way through the 2nd before the fatigue returned and now it is even worse for me than the 1st tri! I guess this is our bodies telling us we need more sleep!

    Wtf to the people DH invited over for dinner last night. Dh invited a couple with their 4 kids over for dinner and told them dinner would  be ready by 6pm. They confirmed that they would be here. At around 6:15 they texted saying they will be late. I can see their house from my house if I want to. And I'm sure they were probably gone. But ok, we decide to wait for them. So at about 7:15 I start making my kids dinner because they were starting to get pretty hungry at that point, then bathed them, and got them all ready for bed. At 830 DH is like fine let's just eat. They seriously never got back to us or said anything. 

    So a little back story on these people... The chick is a SAHM and had 4 kids by 4 different dudes. The guy that's currently  with her is the father to one of them. They aren't rich people. They got evicted from the place they were living at before and moved into the grandpa's place near me. They are constantly leaving their kids with me and other parents without even asking. Dh has been giving the guy some work and a decent car for $500 (they are supposed to make payments to him which I'm sure we'll never see but oh well). And before they got the car from DH they were borrowing it everyday anyways. I'm hoping that they didn't have some crazy emergency and that's the reason why they couldn't make it... Even though I can understand that. But I'm going to assume that they got too effed up on drugs, I just can't prove it. 



    Eta: just found out from the grandpa that he found out that his daughter and the bf had been stealing from him to support their drug addiction. He's calling CPS on her because he got over his denial about what's been going on (I don't even know the whole story, I just know I never like the chick because she didn't seem like a decent mother)... Wtf to those parents! Poor kids.

  • My WTF is this tiredness. They said after the first trimester it would go away, and it did.. but not completely. This past week it has been worse and I am still three weeks from my third trimester! What is going on? Can I have a nap please?
    Ugh. Same here. I feel like it's just been getting worse and worse. I've been getting enough sleep, but I absolutely feel exhausted if I don't get a nap during the day.

    Also WTF to work too... Why? There are too many things to name lately... The work requests I'm getting lately are just stupid.
  • WTF goes to my coworker. He's been my WTF before (pretty much daily). But last week he was bitching about having to move to LA county versus living in Orange County. He inherited a house and chooses to live in a small apartment and waste rent. It's 3 miles away. Just over the county lines. His biggest complaint is that he doesn't want to Los Angeles for jury duty. He complains about not having any money. Everyone tells him, move into your house and save on rent. I told him his reasoning for not wanting to move is ridiculous. He's comparing the worst part of LA to the best part of Orange County. The are he lives in currently is exactly the same as where he'd be moving as it's a couple miles away. I told him I've received jury duty and just had to call in. He recently changed his address to the LA county house in order to get a loan or something. While I was gone yesterday, he got a jury duty summons and was talking crap on my b/c "Little miss know it all doesn't know what she's talking about." Like it's my fault he got jury duty. Serve your civic duty and STFU. He's not talking to me at all today. Which is kind of funny. I certainly don't mind. This is a 55 year old male who is so stuck in his ways. He talks down to his wife and she's scared of him. I have no problem speaking my mind to him.
  • WTF to our Regional making all management work 6 days a week after we just got off of 6 days and this is the slowest time of year!!! I don't get it, this is our slow time of year when we typically close an hour early because of no customer flow. I'm a week away from 3rd tri and they want me ADDING an extra day when I'm getting ready to cut back my hours anyways? Seriously WTF are they thinking!
  • Wtf to my coworker who decided to put down his perfectly healthy dog today because he couldn't deal with him, even after he was given all this information on rescues that would take his dog.

    I am just sitting in my office crying because it was so heartless. 
  • @AliciaD39 yeah that is a HUGE WTF! I worked at a vets office from high school through sophomore ur college and I had a lady put her perfectly normal boxer down because she was too hyper and chewed things up! I cried and refused to have any part in it. My dr even offered to help the lady find a home for her where she had someone who wouldn't lock her in a room all the time! She was 2/3yrs old. If you "can't handle" an animal then wtf get one? Makes me so mad :( wish I could rescue them all but two dogs and a baby will be hard enough

    How could he? How could a vet be willing to do this? It's unconscionable. Poor pup. 
  • @Maybaby0519 and @kakip I know. It is breaking my heart. I wish I didn't know. I feel like I personally failed that dog.

    Wtf to my one coworker. We share the job of filing customer documents, and for the past couple months, we've divided it so that I file stuff on the top drawers and she files on the bottom drawers, since I simply cannot bend/kneel anymore. I initially felt bad about this, but I started working here 2 weeks before I got for pregnant and before I was here, nobody helped her file at all for the past 16years, so there really is no reason for me to feel guilty. My coworker switches back and forth between being really nice and accommodating about this and being very passive aggressive. Yesterday was her day off, so I filed everything I could, and spent a long time doing it. Every time I finished a stack, a new stack of papers to file arrived. I neatly organized and separated all of the stuff for the bottom drawers so my coworker could do it today. Well, not 30 minutes after I get in today, my coworker alerts me that I need to come help her with the filing. I tell her that I did, that there was a lot to file yesterday so what's left is bottom drawer stuff. Well apparently this morning, a small stack of papers was added so there were like literally 5 papers for me to take care of. I responded that those were new, and that if she left them up them up there for me, I'd take care of them soon. She answered "You need to pay attention, girl." EXCUSE ME? I spent FOREVER filing yesterday, and was most definitely paying attention as to make both our jobs easier. I kind of snapped and told her that I spent the whole day standing up there filing, and that she could ask anyone. A little later she came back to her desk, complaining about her bad her chest hurt from bending over. I kindly told her to take a break, and she goes "No, there is too much to do." So I told her to ask someone else to assist her, since I honestly cannot help at this point. She said that was impossible, because everyone else has "leg problems." Ok, don't know what you want from me! Every time I decided to suck it up and help her file the bottom stuff, I've gotten dizzy and had bad back/hip/pelvis pain for the rest of the day. So its not worth it. Anyway, she finished her filing in like 20 minutes, and later in the day we got more to file. Instead of leaving my portion for me to do (I was busy at the time), she just started filing all of it. So I'm confused. She is happy to help me do my job, even when I tell her I'll do it, but she complains when I don't do her job, which I physically cannot do. This is just one of many WTFs I have with this woman... Ugh. Sorry if that was long winded... 
  • WTF to my company's day care program. I just got off the phone with our HR director, and the day care facility that was supposed to be up and running by the end of this month now is not projected to open until June 1st. Also, there are only 12 infant slots available which will be assigned on a lottery basis. That means I now need to find an alternate day care, pay the non-refundable deposits to guarantee a spot, and then possibly lose said deposits if I am able to get into the center at my office.  They aren't even doing the lottery assignments until late April or early May, so I won't know until then whether I can get into the one at my office (which is where I would rather be for convenience reasons)!  Seriously, WTF, people!
  • omg why is that pic so big.  sorry   :|
  • @kurrant that picture is really ridiculous.

    I'm a 36 F (I bought bras in 34 F and now wear them with extenders) and the bra brands that I'm wearing are Chantelle & Primadonna. They are super expensive and I'm not sure if you can get them in NZ but they are definitely great for us large chested ladies. I believe Chantelle is more reasonable.
  • WTF to the kids at school.  They are all insane this week.  Thank God we have Friday off because I am done.

    People are so heartless. This is exactly why I couldn't complete my veterinary technician degree. :(  so sorry you had to deal with this. 
  • @Kurrant from a quick look it seems Figleaves may deliver but no idea costing... I ended up buying underwired nursing bra from there as can't stand no underwire bras which is majority of maternity ones it seems. Not exactly sexy but does the job and holds up and is comfy - if that's not a shudder word!! Good luck. Why people don't cater for the larger pregnant boob I have no idea! 
    Along with @yogahh idea for package maternity baskets with essentials in us guys could set up a fair few businesses after this! 'Boobs, nips and hoo-has!!' I reckon it's got a ring to it!! 
  • @AliciaD39 I am surprised by this! And sad :( I was always under the impression that if an animal is healthy a vet won't put it down? They would adopt it out. And why wouldn't your co-worker just drop the dog off at a no kill shelter? So much of this is just wrong. People suck. Dogs rock!

    I'm glad you all like the idea. I'm seriously thinking about throwing a few packages on etsy to see how they sell

  • Feel the need to update my WTF from yesterday: today I came in and my coworker was already whining about a pain in her face, so I immediately got up and started on the filing so she wouldn't have any excuses to give me crap. She looks at me and goes "Honey, you don't need to do all that yet! We have all day!" 

    WTF do you want from me, woman?!

    I thought so too. I know he told us a few weeks ago before we knew everything his vet refused, but now all of a sudden he said yes? We have had so many coworkers talk to him, and he has always said how wonderful the dog is, but then yesterday out of nowhere we heard he recently said the dog had bit several people. We all feel like he lied so a vet would agree. 

    His is reasoning for not surrendering anywhere was "he didn't want anyone to mistreat the dog.".... um, what about putting down a perfectly healthy, friendly dog?

    Yes! No matter how much sleep I get I feel like I need more. I rarely get the chance to nap. :(

  • @thismakes4 Wow, those poor kids. That's terrible. :/ And how rude of them to tell you they decided not to come. I'd be pissed if I waited that long to eat and no one ever showed up!

    Someone should put him down. Don't get an animal if you can't handle it. I wouldn't exactly call being a pet owner easy. I mean it's not really hard but it is a lot of work!

  • My WTF is me. It happened last night, so technically it qualifies for this thread. I was unloading groceries last night, and as I picked up a large bag of dog food and turned, I started to lose my balance (being incredibly top heavy these days and all!). I took a quick step backward to catch my balance, and I got this shooting pain from my left hip to my knee. I tried taking Tylenol, and it didn't help. I need an anti-inflammatory medicine, but I know I can't take ibuprofen. My doctor's office isn't open yet, but I'm going to have to call them in a little while and ask what else I can take. So, I'm working from home today as I lie here with a heating pad on my hamstring. But, seriously...who "injures" herself trying to unload groceries!?   :(
  • @AdorkablePixie we still haven't even heard from them... Honestly, I wanted nothing to do with the parents but I won't turn away a hungry kid and figured that maybe DH was setting a good example for them. I didn't know how bad the kids situation was.
