WTF Wednesday 3/22

WTF to the people leaving pissy comments on April the Giraffe's birth watch live feed. Sorry that she hasn't had the baby while you were watching and it's getting 'boring' for you. You know who else probably really wants that baby to come out? The giraffe who's been pregnant for 15 months. 

I know it's a silly thing to be irritated by, but I feel like people in general expect birth to happen when it's convenient for them and forget that the mom and baby are the important parties in this equation.

What's going on with you ladies?

    WTF local embroidery shop who didn't get my special maternity shirts done until the day before I left for my conference (today) and switched the sleeve and front logos, when they had the shirts for 4 weeks and specific instructions on where to place each logo! Now not only do I stick out due to my giant bump, I have the wrong logo on the front of my shirt and there was no time to fix it. I had to special order maternity shirts in the right color to begin with and take them in to be embroidered. $60 for messed up shirts and they wouldn't give me any sort of discount. Ugh. They will not be getting a good yelp review!

    WTF to my DDs school. We are in the processing of potty training and apparently she had an accident during nap time on Monday. Noone told me when I picked her up. Today upon drop- off I noticed her sleeping bag all rolled up in a bag. Poor thing has to sleep on the hard floor today. Ugh, I've been emotional over it all morning.

    @itsfine That would make me super sad too!

    WTF to my colleague who is undermining me at every turn. I also found out that she may have lied about something to me and a bunch of other (more senior) folks and am trying to figure out how to find out if she did without being obvious about it. I have become an angry and moderately vindictive pregnant lady.

    Also, a WTF to anyone who has asked "how much longer?" and looked surprised / concerned when I said three months. Not helpful, people.

    @c1tym0m22 Yes!  WTF?  People will ask "when are you due?"  They're all like, "June?!!!" when I answer them.

    I was standing near two women at an indoor play space (one was pregnant) this weekend.  I caught there eye and they smiled as one of the women (I'm assuming the mother or aunt of the expectant mother) said "Well she (pointing to me) looks to be due sooner than you".  They asked when I was due and I replied "June" with a smile.
    They both looked shocked.  The pregnant woman says "Oh wow!  I'm due in July so I guess we're not far off".

    @itsfine that would infuriate me!!!  That is something that needed to be addressed as soon as you picked her up so you could take her stuff home and wash it.  My WTF is to her teachers/school too!!

    WTF to myself! I had plans to make pulled pork in the crockpot overnight and completely forgot.  So now I'm cooking it on high today and I bet it won't turn out as well.  Boo.  

    Also DS woke up with a little cold and it's pitiful.

    WTF me. And WTF Virginia. Apparently when I went on work travel a few weeks ago I didnt open the EZ pass transponder in the rental car for 1 of the 2 tolls. I blame pregnancy brain, stupid rental car, and unusual tolls (not a toll booth just overhead readers). I now have to pay an $80 fine for skipping a $2 toll. Obviously cant be reimbursed through work bc its a traffic violation. I feel like an idiot but also like the State of Virginia is robbing me!

    WTF Braxton hicks. They are so strong I was getting light headed. Not cool. Currently feeling very lazy while I'm laying on the couch chugging water and watching Bambi with dd. I've got a lot of chores to get to.

    @itsfine Her teachers and school get my WTF today!! That's terrible. It's one thing to not want to embarass her, so they don't mention it infront of her, but the whole having her sleep on the hard floor... unacceptable. And sad :(

    WTF to my male coworker who doesn't seem to think I know how to do my job. Every time I say something he doesn't agree with in a project, he goes to our supervisor to get HIS opinion. I'm trying very hard to not jump to conclusions and say it's sexism. But it sure feels like it.

    WTF coworkers. Yes they redid all of the bathrooms in our school this summer. Yes, it is unfortunate that they chose to change our two stall nonhandicap accessible bathroom to a one stall accessible one. Yes it's strange they chose to put a stall in the bathroom on our floor instead of The single user locks on the other floor. BUT, it's not broken you have a locking stall and therefore as much privacy as you have ever had. The schoolboy is not going to change it. adapt.

    @meilay maybe you will be weird like me and enjoy baby laundry.  I still much prefer to do my kids laundry than my husband and mine.

    WTF to lazy coworkers who don't put in any effort in any of their work, to the point where all their shit ends up on my desk for me to re-do...on the day that it is all due! And yet they leave work right on time everyday, while I stay back after hours to do their shit. I think my inability to say no to my boss coz he always looks so helpless is going to leave a big fat 'SUCKER!' imprint on my forehead. Work is supposed to be getting easier, not more stressful! Can't wait for my maternity leave!!

    WTF OBGYN for running 35-45 min late for the 3rd appointment in a row! Everyone's time should be respected. I have told them too that I work in the tech park behind their office and can pop over whenever it is convenient for them if they need to move me around.

    WTF to the sales guy at my work who exclaimed "WHOA! You look miserable!!" to me today.

    Usually I just walk away and fume... Today I snapped back with a "who says something like that?!?!"

    Yeah, probably not the most professional response from upper mgmt to one of our entry-level guys but F*%K! I feel/felt good today! Don't ruin my vibe, man!!
