(no subject)
The situation - my boss was recently married (last year) and is now out on leave for the next few weeks as his wife has their first child.
I am the only female in a department full of males, and the only female under the age of 50-something on the entire floor.
....apparently everyone now feels compelled to ask me when I'm getting married/having kids, and to presume that I *will* do so at some point, to scoff when I politely say no, I will not be doing so, and to imply that "accidents happen" and surely I'll find myself having a kid at some point.
I AM GOING TO START PUNCHING PEOPLE IN THE FACE.
Firstly, it is NONE OF THEIR BUSINESS. Secondly, it makes gross assumptions about my social life, habits, and ability to have any control or choices about my life and body. Thirdly, it is NONE OF THEIR GODDAMNED BUSINESS.
And this on top of inheriting my boss' work as well as scrambling to do my own. Homicide is looking justifiable. v___v
