Re: Wtf Wednesday 11/2

  • WTF boss. My day to day work takes up all my time at least 4 days a week. I get maybe an hour squeezed in somewhere for special projects (which are piled high). He just told me he wants all of those projects done by the end of November. Not gonna happen buddy. Unless you'd like me to abandon my daily work, which I will gladly do.

  • @jandd2014, THIS HAPPENED TO ME!!! We let a few select people know at the beginning that we were expecting, a very few. One of them being my friend. We told everyone that we were not making it public knowledge yet as we were waiting until after the first trimester. Around week 10/11 I wake up on a Saturday morning to a notification on my phone saying this friend had written something on my wall. She had posted a picture of a onesie stating "I need to know what the gender is so that I know what color to get you" --- ummmmm WHAT?! Since it was posted on my wall, I was able to delete it before anyone liked or commented on it (luckily I woke up at 7 am to pee, she had posted it around midnight) - then called her and called her (she didn't answer), let a VM bawling asking why she thought it was appropriate to do that and how could she be so insensitive to the fact that this was our news to share, not hers...and even sent her a bunch of texts. All I got back was a text 3 hours later saying "I'm sorry, I forgot you hadn't announced it yet." Needless to say, she is a big part of the reason why we have chosen not to share the gender with anyone.

  • WTF other mom at McDonald's...your child has been in the "bouncer" for the last 10 minutes at least.  It's apparent that my son's wwould also like to play with it (years have been shed by my youngest), but you've made next to zero effort to either get him to vet6 off or share.

  • WTF other mom at McDonald's...the play equipment isn't only your child's. He can share just as easily as my children can, so get off your arse and get him off the "bouncer"...he's been on it 10 minutes already, it's the only piece of equipment that is intended to be used by one child, and it's more than obvious my kids would like a turn. If looks could do bodily harm, I'm pretty sure blood would have been shed today.

  • WTF hair. Mine has been a First World Problem struggle for a couple years now, but most recently with this pregnancy... it's awful! It's stick straight the way it is, and usually pretty flat. Unfortunately, my usual volumizing products don't do a darn thing, but if I don't have something in my hair than it is completely lifeless. I cut a couple inches off at the end of September and my ends look awful, even with using conditioner just on them to combat dryness, split ends, etc. Gross.

    And now, I can't even part it anywhere where it will actually lay nice. Where I had parted my hair for YEARS, it's like my hair just quit but doesn't know what to do. I spend more time finding a place to part it, and then correcting it later on after I run an iron through it to curl the ends, then I do getting ready (shower/make-up/getting dressed).

  • WTF work. I let my boss know I'm going on leave, and she's intentionally not telling people and told me to keep it from my coworkers until a few days out. So weird! She also just started doing some of my projects once she found out, and I'm like wait, I'm still here...on the bright side, I guess I have a hell of a light work load from here on out.

  • WTF to one of my coworkers who lectured me about getting induced. FYI- I have no plans on getting induced as of now and I haven't even mentioned to any of my coworkers anything related to this so IDK where this came from. She started going on how I can not get pitocin because it fill make the baby feel like he's drowning and I won't be able to have him anyways so I'll end up with a C section.

    Then an hour later one of my coworkers was asking if I was going to try natural or get an epi and before I could answer this same lady from earlier butted in saying "Oh she's going all natural"... I was like oh well wtf. News to me since I don't even know what I'm doing yet... Sigh

  • @dmontgo I must have run into that same lady on my walk today. Asked when I was due. Then said I didn't look very big. Told her I sure felt huge. She said "well he must feel bigger to you than he looks". Uh, I guess so? Thanks?
  • Apparently my grandma told my brother today that I've gained too much weight for my frame and she had no idea how I get around with all this weight. Umm... ok. I screen shot a picture of my health app that shows I walked over five miles today just at work and sent it to him. I'm not concerned with how much weight I've gained and my doctor isn't either. Why is anyone else? It's so frustrating. 
  • Multiple wtf today
    just learned that our hospital closed the baby nursery. Baby friendly my butt. I feel like I need to send the administrators this article https://time.com/4216289/nurseries-babies-moms/
    DH was not going to spend the night on their rock hard futon couch, he was going to go home and take care of the kids.  Now I'm hoping for a smooth delivery with no complications and an early discharge. 
    went to the pelvic PT specialist yesterday after the evaluation a couple weeks ago. I was so hopeful, mostly because the therapist said they do things differently. Well i could hardly tolerate any of the exercises because of pain, to the point where she just almost gave up. Nothing new, same exercises the general PT gave me to do 4 years that didn't work. I was so frustrated and when I got home just cried and cried to DH.  He told me not to go back, but I feel like I need to at least give them one more shot. 19 more work days, I just need to get through it.

  • WTF to my professor today. She high jacked our presentation and went down a 30 minute rabbit hole, while I just had to stand there. Newsflash, I just taught all day and now I'm doing a stupid presentation and my feet are about to swell out of my shoes. Please get me a chair or let me finish my slides before jumping into your own thing that kind of goes with what I'm talking about.
  • Wtf that I had to spend all Monday afternoon in l&d bc I was having contractions 5-8 minutes apart. when I called my doc some bimbo answered and interrogated me with 900 questions...some of which I had already told her but her early 20 something yr old self didn't process. after giving her a novel detailing everything she says, ok let me get the nurse. Wtfffffffffffffff!!!?????? of course I had to recap everything to the actual nurse. I didn't even get to take my 3 yr old trick or treating and cried for hours. momfail. 
  • So DH who is usually pretty amazing thought it would be funny to change the password on my laptop last night just to play around. Didn't mention it, nothing. I couldn't sleep this morning because sciatica and shoulder pain was just making me miserable. I thought, "hey, I'll get up, walk the dogs and play around on the computer while he sleeps so I don't disturb him." I had about 45 min until he needed to get up. Yeah, I spent those 45 minutes trying to figure out wtf had happened to my computer (did I have a virus? was I hacked? do I need to go to the Apple Store?). I couldn't figure out why it wouldn't take the password that had always been my password, eventually successfully got into my computer, had to update the key chain password, accidentally deleted all my saved internet passwords in the process - what a mess. He gets up and goes, "Did you crack the code already?" "YOU DID THIS?" I screeched. That was a great joke, DH, five stars. :|

  • @Austenista boo - not a funny joke!  I'm vengeful and the next time I woke up early I'd wake him up on purpose.  I half woke up last night to turn on to my side after somehow ending up on my back.  DH had just gone to the bathroom sees that I'm almost awake and proceeds to tell me all about the World Series.  After a 5 minute conversation he fell right back asleep and I was up for another half an hour.

  • Posting mine a day late but I feel it's justified. SO gets both my WTF and TW for the week. He works in retail managemebt, so this week he was off Sunday, worked early Monday and Tuesday - Thursday he closed. he unexpectedly had an interview on Tuesday morning with his current employer for a higher up management rroe. exciting right? So as I'm getting ready for work this morning were having a completely normal conversation and it's just a typical day. He then goes to the bathroom and when he comes back decides to lay on the couch . whatever, no big deal. He usually goes back to bed on days like this after I leave so this is normal. What was not normal was when I said I was leaving he completely blew me off and would not speak to me. Um, I'm sorry, what the hell?

    He then proceeds to ignore me all day - even when I texted him to let him know DSD was sent home from school for vomiting. Finally he calls me at quarter to six and proceeds to tell me how terrible his day is, nothing is going right, hespecially tired, blah blah blah. At this point I was starting to get ticked off about the way he was speaking to mme but recognized he was having a tough day so I said I'm sorry to hear that and I hope it gets better. 45 minutes later he stops at home during his break. he comes storming through the door, slamming it so hard that it slides back open (living door) and yells at me about how the fast food place messed up his dinner order. At this point I just walk away because I am over his attitude. He then follows me and says, well I guess I'll just leave since you're too busy for me. Followed by his grand exit where he walks out and slams the door again.

    I've just completely lost my cool at this point. Too mad to even call him (and  knowing he won't answer anyways) I texted him and called him out on his behavior. I told him at this point he needed to get his shit together and then I would be happy to sit down and talk with him. I am perma-exhausted, I work more hours, I'm 8 months pregnant, and I have been spending all of my time off prepping for our little girl's arrival in 8 short weeks. And I do not want to hear that your day has been terrible because you didn't get to nap until 11 30 and Arby's effed up your order. WTF.
