As expected, my manager could not care less about me working from home until year end. But apparently there are grumblings from our office - I'm never here (BS they see me every week), do I even work here anymore, how come I get to do this and they don't, it's not fair etc.
Keep in mind I work in a different line of business than them and our parent company's policy is "remote working is encouraged but its managements approval". Their manager doesn't want to allow it, mine doesn't care.
So ya'll are gonna stir shit up for me huh.
GTFO with the pettiness.
He said we'll check in monthly and take it from there.

kleigh People are aholes. Maybe they should go complain to their own management if they want to WFH too. I'm glad your manager is still ok with your arrangement.

You know it really makes me salty. Like I look around and think who is stirring this up, which one of you women who engage me about my babies, ask me how we all are, ask to see pictures - which of you is the back stabber? This + TCF explosion = never trust ANYBODY 😬
kleigh sorry people are just stirring the pot when it doesn't need to be. You have your managers support and that's all that matters!
Hi ladies! Glad to see this thread and that we're still together! Busy Monday at work and just planning to go to the gym later, I lead such an exciting life!

Just say the word and I will hit send on this order of a truckload of dick glitter. Fuck those people, seriously.

Ugh I'm feeling you kleigh. I got to the point where I was trying to reason with her last night. The worst part is that for the three previous nights she was asleep from 8:30 to midnight with zero issues. Was self soothing like a champ. It felt like HEAVEN. I told H that a few more days of that and I was going to start trying to lengthen out the every two hour wake ups from midnight on. She probably heard me and decided to throw a big ol' wrench in that plan. I swear she's smarter than me. I was going to offer up the sleep plan to you and anyone else interested (minimal cry, co-sleep optional) if I can figure out how to send it. Even though I'm still having a rough time I do think it's slowly helping me.
Also, those petty bitches. Wtaf? Why do people have to be such assholes? Seriously. More people need to learn to go read a book or some shit when they're bored instead of stirring up drama.
danib I think you described my dream vacation. I would love to go somewhere that would force us to completely disconnect from the world. So excited that you'll have some help this summer!

kleigh, I would be really pissed off too. People seriously need to learn how to worry about themselves and not what everyone else is doing. You get your work done and that is really the only thing that matters.
danib, I am jealous of your weekend at the cabin. I'm happy you had a relaxing time and I'm even more happy that you feel better about the current chaos going on around us.
sophiegrace, I'm sorry last night was rough. I really hope she gives you better sleep tonight.
And I am guessing everyone would be ok if we got the passworded board wiped?
I am not clearing my history here but I figure if it's private enough you wanted it passwored you might want it gone even if you didn't really care to have your history cleared. Maybe?

I'm ok with this. I'll be getting my content deleted eventually here anyway.

sophiegrace I'd def be interested in reading it if you get the chance and figure out how to send it. That's what I don't get, the day we came home from our overnight - that night she slept from 6:30p to 1 or 2am, took a bottle and went back to sleep until 5:30am. She stirred a few times but always soothed herself right back to sleep with no issue, no whining, no help, no real waking - just adjusting her position. So I *know* she can do it, so why won't she every other night (or at least more frequently)? That night I had laid her on the couch when she first passed out bc I was finishing jeopardy and WOF with H. I kept expecting her to move and I'd take her upstairs but then she just didn't fuss so I stayed up and read all the TCF drama all night. It's making me wonder if she doesn't like our nighttime set up (bedroom very dark with sound machine going). I'm just lost. Anyway, I'm a terrible hostess, let me pour you a glass of wine.

cookswithwine9 I think you can use the baby excuse until they're like 5.
sophiegrace Definitely sounds like the back slide to me. It's often on night 3, but other nights shortly after starting are common, too. And I would LOVE to see the plan if you can figure out how to send it. I'm ready.
I've only been able to skim the past few hours because I've been out at meetings. This week is going to be ridiculous, guys ::sigh::
Y'know what else is ridiculous? This effing weather. I'm freezing right now sitting here in sweatpants, a long sleeved shirt, and a heavy sweatshirt. It's 50 fucking degrees outside, even though four days ago it was 97. OVER IT.

I spent nap time taking screenshots of a few of the things that I wanted to hold onto from here (monthly check in info and birth announcement) and I think we've run into the problem of people who have wanted their content deleted, but have been quoted. This is particularly bad with all the birth live blogs we did. IMO that's some of the most sensitive info that I don't want strangers seeing if I'm no longer a part of this site.
So feel free to tell me to fuck off, but when we do find our finally resting area for N16 and we all migrate, out of respect for everyone who we may have quoted, is everyone willing to request content deletion?

I'm defeinitely not going to tell you to fuck off. I'm also not deleting my content since I plan to stay on this site for a little while (given that at least one of my boards plans to stay). But I want to respect your wishes and I'm happy to delete or edit any of my posts that quote you if you tell me where they are.

I'm not too concerned about my stuff. I was more worried about those who have already left.

I just wish none of this happened and we could stay. Looking back through all our old threads really makes me appreciate this last year plus of memories here with everyone.

I feel the same way and also today is probably the saddest I've felt about it.
