My colleague likes to comment on my pumping. He doesn’t know I’m going to be his boss starting in October

@luvgodforever Yikes!!! This is so inappropriate.

Being promoted to his boss is 100% the best revenge. But if the story wasn't going to end like that and this was ongoing, then my advice would have been:

Looks really thoughtful and concerned "Is everything OK, Thad? You seem to be noticing every movement and I just wanted to check in - is everything going OK with you? Are you feeling stimulated enough at work?"

@luvgodforever What a Thwad.

@luvgodforever I would do what I do to my toddlers. Ignore.

And when you become his boss, then start writing him up for it.

 

[pragmatix]

@luvgodforever Tell Thad to stop being such a chode.

@luvgodforever Omg so at my work there is only one male coworker and whenever I went to take my pumping break he’d say “I wish I had her schedule!” And it’s like dude everyone gets two breaks. Mine are a whopping 5 extra minutes.

 

[luvgodforever]

@soonerrick It’s not like it’s fun either. You’re hooked to a machine that is literally pulling on your nipples. It kinda sucks.

 

[zhadey]

@luvgodforever No pun intended?

@luvgodforever

I bet the comments end then.

Yeah, sorry but they are probably going to get worst.

@luvgodforever I want an update! Congrats!

 

[shannone]

@luvgodforever Omg I love this! Would love to be there when he finds out

 

[thomidog]

@shannone Same! Please record, OP

 

[claude221198]

@luvgodforever Sorry he seems to be doing this as some kind of get you in trouble thing. I worked with a guy that would always ask if I was heading home when I had my large pump carrying purse. He was just oblivious.

 

[luvgodforever]

@claude221198 I’d give him the benefit of the doubt if he hadn’t been a jerk the whole time I worked there. So, in my eyes, this is not naive.

@luvgodforever “Thad you must have a really light workload if you are focused on what I’m doing all of the time. I wish I had that little to do!”

 

[findinghisway]

@luvgodforever “Well, Thad, because organizations like this one and public policy is archaic and still dominated by the patriarchy, I have to pump my breast milk 3 times a day in a [insert adjectives to describe the office pumping room] room here instead of feeding my 4 month old infant directly.”

 

[s_ruger]

@luvgodforever When coworkers text/call me at work asking where I am I typically just respond with

I also love to offer people “fresh creamer”

 

[blackakira]

@luvgodforever Love this. Congratulations.

 

[drlamar]

@luvgodforever Can you give us an update once he finds out please

 

[salvia123]

@luvgodforever Lol this is hilarious. You should tell him every time that you're pumping and you wish you had as much time as him to be worried about other people's schedules

 

[seelefire]

@luvgodforever Totally sounds like Microsoft (or at least a tech company of some sort)! Ugh! So glad I got out of that toxic environment! But, I am glad to hear it’s mostly working out for you. Congratulations on the re-org/promo!
