Ugh my job!

I'm just venting but I'm getting sick of my job, seemed like when I wasn't pregnant we were not greeting work and sent home early, now there wanting us to work over 2 days a week and have us working Saturdays to! Normally I would live all the overtime but right now my body can't handle it! And it's not like I can just say anything cause they just be like "hit the road" and replace me just like that. Grrrrrrrrr can I just win the lotto ??!!

You are soooo right. My 9 year old son is like that. Angry birds, mickey mouse clubhouse are alright but we have a show called Doraemon in which a boy always gets zero marks n would you believe it he's the main character. It's a Japanese dubbed program in English . All mothers are just fed up of it.

Lol I have 10 and 12 year old!! Baby's are cheap compared to them!! And I don't have the option to take long lunches or brakes, not a office job it's manufacturing and they could care less

Not only is the baby stuff expensive, but it will  contonue to be that way for the next 18 years! Lol... Pretty soon you'll have a little one begging you for a Nintendo DS and an iPad - even though all they want to do with it is play angry birds and watch Mickey mouse club house.

Maybe you can break up your schedule like taking a long lunch (go take a 45 min power nap in your car) or work some of the hours from home (if it is an office job)?

That's terrible.... Sounds like they don't care... I live in England and here they HAVE TO make sure you are ok and well looked after. They have to even let you have additional brakes if you need to. At the beginning of my pregnancu i was very sick so forever dpend in the toilet and needed to eat every 2 hours. I am 25 weeks and here the earliest we can start maternity is 29 weeks.....i am starting then as just can't work anymore....
Look after yourself and your baby xx

Lucky you natfox :) I'm only 20 weeks.. I work in a poultry plant and its not easy work at all and when I need to go to the bathroom it can take 5-10 mins for my stupid supervisor to get someone to take my place, he's to lazy to do it himself..

I'm with you. I'm beginning to hate my job that I previously loved. The people I work with are so inconsiderate & my boss won't switch our responsiblities because she don't want to make the old ladies mad. They're going to be real mad when I quit & they have to do it anyway. I mean I can't bend down all day any more without pain & my baby is more important than any job. Maybe we should play the lotto together!
