oh and now I remember my story about the admin girl who won't answer her phone. I spoke to my old team leader, who went and spoke to the area manager, who then got in a fight with two other managers for 'leaking information' to me!! when it was another manager entirely who tipped us off to the slackarse's ways in the first place.

A good policy for new mums returning to work, I feel, is to PRETEND that there is a person in the office who cannot have kids for biological reasons, and IMAGINE what it would be like to be considerate to that person. That way you do not annoy other women in the office by ducking out of responsibilities with the OH MY BABY excuse (this happened at the last non-magazine office I worked at).

And even worse is the "here I am at work but I have BABY BRAIN so I cannot think straight or get anything done" excuse. I don't get to use "I have DIDNT GET ANY SLEEP AT THE WEEKEND BRAIN so I cannot think straight or get anything done" as an excuse and I really don't see the difference.

Me: "Yes, there are two very obvious problems. One, you've done [blah blah blah], the same mistake that you made last time you had to ask me for help with this. Two, you've missed out a closing quote mark on one of the tags on the page. Look, it works now I've fixed it."
(wait ten minutes)
Co-worker: "It still doesn't work."
Me: "It did after I fixed it." *click on View Source* "no, because you've just re-uploaded your broken version and overwritten the one I fixed."
To myself: grrrrrrrr

So true. My boss has been using this excuse since she announced she was pregnant. She's not even HAD the baby yet......

"Thank you SO much." (Anytime anyone does anything.)
"I'm sorry for interrupting." (When you're doing nothing but breathing.)
"Bub-bye" at the end of every phone call.
Uses max number of words in discussing the simplest concepts.
