Feel bad saying that but... Friend is 9 weeks pregnant with her first dc, her partner is the store manager. They have both told their co workers that she will be unable to perform her normal duties on days when there is a delivery so the co workers will have to do her job and vice versa as lifting slightly heavy objects will put too much strain on her stomach...
She's just overheard her colleagues moaning about favoritism and talking about refusing to swap jobs as the ones who've already had dc couldn't do this until much later in their pregnancy. They've also apparently talked about the fact that she still smokes at least 10 a day yet can't lift anything due to the risks to the baby?
She's furious and now believes that they are out to get her due to her relationship and her baby I can't help but feel the same as her colleagues. It does seem like she is getting special treatment and is making no effort to stop smoking even though smoking also poses a risk to her dc. I go into that shop regularly and have heard a lot more about it than she's letting on, her colleagues are basically doing her job and their own as she apparently always makes excuses.
I'm a bad friend :(
