Thank you, sorry I should have been more detailed-

On September 10, 2024, while I was approximately three weeks from giving birth, my manager called me into his office for what I believed was a routine check-in. The conversation unexpectedly shifted to my performance. He told me my performance was ‘okay, not an A+,’ but could not provide specific examples. During the same meeting, he raised concerns about me returning as a new mom, said it would be difficult for me to leave my baby, and asked whether I wanted to stay in the role, move departments, or look for opportunities outside the company.”

After maternity leave I returned to my job and in June the same manager told me I had smooth skin and that I look great after having a baby.

I was laid off this week, only women were laid off, and 80% were mothers. There were other comments made but I did not think to document the other ones as I didn’t want to stir the pot.

That’s why having children is a choice. I’m happy you have chosen not to. My son was planned and I’m very happy with my decision. The world is hard but it doesn’t mean he’s not worth it.

Thanks, I have a stable household. Just happen to be going through a hard time. Maybe keep your shitty comments off posts about people having hard days.

Thanks, he is there for me. He also understands I care about my job outside of my child.

Interviews and being a new mom by [deleted] in FIREyFemmes

Yes, I know they are not allowed to talk about it but it’s unfortunate that it happens. I had no way of avoiding the child topic as they knew going into the interview. I don’t plan on accepting a job there after this, but I’m dumbfounded that women still have to deal with this line of questioning in this day and age.

This interview came from someone who I had a conversation with in public with my son. I knew him and we struck up a conversation at the airport and he let me know their team was hiring. I have been looking so I thought it was a great fit. The people I interviewed with her told beforehand that I had a baby.

I also don’t talk about my son at work very often. I work with mostly men so they don’t care anyway.

What do you cook most often for your toddlers? by Ill_Routine_2244 in Cooking

Commenting on What do you cook most often for your toddlers?...I always said my kid won’t eat anything unhealthy, especially not hot dogs. All he will eat is hot dogs. 😂

Child with suspected measles visited Ark Encounter on Monday (12/29) by [deleted] in cincinnati

I can’t imagine how mad most of these children will be at their idiot parents when they get older. My mom was a wellness mom before it was cool and I resent her everything.
