KABAM!

Pregnant people scare me. Sometimes.

I work at the water park yes? Yes. And when I tell them that they can't go on the slides because they are with child, they get really, really, really mad. I worry they're going to have their baby right then and there.

KABAM!
...
BABY!

But I've become better at handling this. When they used to give me flack, I would not give flack back but I would not be neutral either. You know? But now, I say the two most neutral words in the universe, "I'm sorry." Sometimes I add a "mam" in there. Just trying to be respectful.

BUT SUE ME FOR NOT WANTING ANYTHING BAD TO HAPPEN TO YOUR BABY! Actually, please don't.

Inside: "Kind of gross...but pretty exciting. Congratulations!"
