You Kind Of Asked

Male boss into phone, excitedly: So how’s the pregnancy going?! [pause] Well, that’s great! Are you going to go C-section? [short pause] Look, I don’t need to hear about your placenta. You start telling me about your uterus, and we can just be done talking about this. I don’t need to hear about your women’s things.

Small office in Golden Valley, MN
Overheard by this, from the guy who says he knows what childbirth is like?
