I'm sitting here, busting out some ATOT since it's now official that we can't surf the net at work (even on breaks).
So, this lady sitting next to me, has her kid next to her in his stroller. He's being kind of whinny and obviously is in need of SOMETHING. The mom is just surfing the net, looks like her yahoo mail.
So, her kid hits a peak in his whining, and she snaps back, "Daniel! Stop it right now! I'll take you outside and change you in just a minute! Now stop it!"
WTF?!?!?!
As a parent, I just want to put her in a diaper and let her sit in her waste while I surf the net so I can tell her to wait, then get mad at her for even thinking that I should drop what I was doing to put fresh clothes on her.
:disgust::|
****UPDATED****
So as I was getting ready to leave, the same was still going on with no sign of her finishing her online-shopping, and no end in sight for her son's unhappiness.
I casually began talking to her about he child, said I have a 4yr old and a 9month old, blah blah blah, the difficulties of trying to get things done, etc, how everytime you seem to have a moment to relax, something comes up. Typical "fellow parent" convo. Then to finish the convo, before getting up and leaving, I said:
"Yeah, mine usually aren't too bad most of the time. Then again, it may just be because I don't yell and get mad at them for being unhappy about sitting in their own shyt."
Then I got up and left. She had no response. She just looked at me with a "i can't believe he jsut said that" look. The guy that was sitting to my right started laughing, as did the 2 people on the opposite side of the table.
As I was pulling out of the parking lot, I did see her coming out of the front door with her kid tho.
