damn it!

One of my co-workers just asked me if I was pregnant. This is the second or third time this has happened this year. It's probably the 6th time it's happened in the past two years.

No, I'm not pregnant. I'm just fat. Thanks for asking. Like it's any of your business anyway.

Do people have any tact at all?? I would never ask a woman this question!

Re: damn it!

  • Oh my.  Bless her heart. 
  • oh man. I just read about this in an article...."top 10 things to never say at work" & this was one of them!!
  • Do people not think before they ask that question? Oy! Angry

    I read a Nest thread sometime ago in some other board that I can't remember, talking about the true meaning of "bless her/his/your heart".  I'm onto you Mary! ;)

    And yeah, nobody should ever ask if you're pregnant unless they see the baby falling out of your lady parts.  Seriously.  I'd just ask if she was pregnant as well.

  • Wow, I think that's such a rude thing to ask someone.  It's up on the list with 'So when are you having a baby?'  It's none of your business!  I'm sorry Alison, some people just don't think before they speak.

    This exactly. Some people are just idiots and assume since you're married that you're pregnant,

    She totally did! Some people need a crash course in manners, or the very least, how to keep their mouths shut.
