Who can work when someone has hiccups right next to you? No one, that’s who. No one can work. And she didn’t even apologize. She just kept hiccuping. I’m in perimenopause. Hiccups are not acceptable. But she didn’t even say sorry. And I wanted to stab her. These are the thoughts that go through my head. I didn’t. Of course. I told her to take the day off. I said she should take a sick day. If she was going to have hiccups like that she couldn’t reasonably be at work. Who comes into work with hiccups that bad? She should go home. And you know what? She wasn’t even pregnant. If she was pregnant I could understand having the hiccups but she wasn’t pregnant. So I told her to take a sick day. But she just stayed and hiccuped. It was worse than the time my kids were drinking water with ice. All that clinking. I don’t know what’s wrong with people.” 260607 what's it to you? who go blather from
