WTF Wednesday (3/2)

What’s making you say WTF this week? Vent away!
Re: WTF Wednesday (3/2)
So this guy called and told us that he'd hit his head on some concrete over the weekend skateboarding and had to get stitches. We asked him to bring us a release (he works in manufacturing and if you've got a head injury we have to make sure you're safe to work around machines without falling out). He brought his release.
Signed by the OBGYN who did my pregnancy intake, but without the office logo on the paperwork. We asked him what doctor he went to and he said he didn't remember the name.
My manager pulled him to the side and was like, "Dr. Soandso is an OBGYN" and she said he got this big grin on his face and said "I know, but I didn't want to tell all the ladies up front that I went to the OB. Dr. Soandso is my cousin, and she said just to come to the office and she'd stitch me up."
I CRIED laughing.
@curlymils @twizzleraddict1 I was also unable to workout in my first tri due to all day morning sickness. Trying to get back into now is definitely going to be a struggle. But the instructor for the prenatal program I took said at one point, "You can choose to quit this, but remember when you're giving birth, you can't quit that." It was like a rude awakening that if I can't even make it through a prenatal workout class, it'll be a lot harder to make it through labor. So I guess I'm just gonna have to stick it out and start trying to get better even though it is hard lol.
Some days I am super slow and others are so productive! Just going with my body's flow.
@bre2022 I know exactly what you mean about not being able to get a lot done. Pre-pregnancy I was in decent shape and physically able to do things... now everything just feels harder.
@dimeadozen @tmartin014 Yes to all of this. I cannot get this acne to leave no matter what I do. We're mask optional now in schools, but not only am I wearing it to hopefully keep myself from getting COVID from kids literally coughing and sneezing in my face, but to also cover this heinous face. Feeling SUPER not confident about any part of this body currently.
