My FFC isn't very exciting... I teach first grade.. and I love them I do... But today was a day where I couldn't imagine leaving school and coming home to my own children!!! I really need a beer....wine...a diet coke will have to do! I hate being the grumpy teacher!
I'm a high school teacher - 100% empathize with this statement.
Sometimes I just can't deal with DS's attitude after dealing with my students all day. I get so impatient with him and then I feel bad.
My confession is that I got dressed for work and before I went in, I took my oldest to urgent care ( she has the flu and pink eye). After the drs i came home and decided to work from home. I changed my clothes. This morning I put on the same clothes again and went to work. The gross part of course is I sat for two hours in urgent care filled with sick people. I didn't give a fuck this morning. Dealing with sick kids and pregnancy fatigue I am proud I showered and changed my underwear.

Middle school teacher, sympathize here. I taught 6th grade while living with my parents with my brother in 6th grade. It was difficult being around them all day and then going home to another one. Not looking forward to the day they are in the same grade that I teach.
I got pregnant while on WCB (back injury) and had a meeting today about my return to work plan, where they flamed me for driving to 2 hours away to visit my mom in hospital, because "I was told not to sit for long periods". I am now trying to figure out how to quit my job before telling them I'm pregnant because I know I'm going to get flamed for "participating in activities I shouldn't have". I spent 4 years in University to become a RN and I never want to do nursing work again.
I know this isn't really a FFFC, but I've been sitting on my couch crying about how this meeting went since I got home 4 hours ago.
I'm an RN too but work in early phase clinical research. Essentially, I give people new medications and do testing to check for safety and effectiveness. It is awesome. Runs like a hospital, but cleaner, easier, and pays way better. You should see if there is anything similar in your area.

After all of that I don't think I would've had energy to go to work, totally would've worked from home again.
I had a horrible, screaming fight with H, and locked myself in the bathroom to ugly cry. I'm still angry with him, and he's in the bedroom, peacefully falling asleep to one of his boring documentaries while I'm sitting on the couch, all tensed up and miserable. I hate that he can fall asleep with a fight unresolved. I hate that he falls asleep so easily, period. I almost never have Friday nights off, and we were supposed to have a good time tonight, and it's just been horrible.

Aw I'm sorry. That's awful. My DH is the same way, no problem falling asleep and leaving me awake and miserable. It's a good rule not to go to bed angry but it's hard when your DH just goes to sleep. Hope you work it out tomorrow!
Definitely not! If it's your dream job, you go for it, pregnant or not!
I KNOW!!! It is, and I really think I'm in a good position! But with the whole year-off maternity leave (NOT COMPLAINING), it feels a little awkward nonetheless.
I know how you feel. I am hoping to transfer from a term teaching position into a permanent one, just in time to go on maternity for a year in September.
