Aa
am I unreasonable???
Ok...so I work with family for a family business and I am now 29 weeks ppregnant I try to keep all my pregnancy issues outside of work so they dont get in the way. I am now starting to slow down and get tired and am desperate for afternoon nap....but I dont take them. On the other hand my sister-in-law who has nothing particularly wrong with her disappears off at random times of the day for an hours sleep and then still comes back to have her luch break or has lunch then goes for an hours sleep (she also has a thursday afternoon off and I work full time)....im starting to get miffed as it happens constantly yet and as much as I would love a sleep business comes first....am I wrong in getting annoyed?? Im too scared to say something in case I rock the boat...
I would ask for a extra break... I work and yesterday i worked almost 4 hrs and they didnt give me a break so I took it upon myself to sit my big ole prego self down to relax for a min I dont care wht anybody says im pregnant I need a break
This is why I always think that business, work and family don't mix. But hey if you're tired and feel sleepy than yeah ask them. You need rest when it's possible
Just mention you need a lil nap during the day since u are preggos and need that energy boost since wking fulltime. U dont have to rat the other girl out if dont want to, but u can say shes there to help and can handle things while u nap a while or take a break. It will force the other chick to be respsonsible and putting overload on you
You have to worry about yourself you are carry a little one I agree with amy maybe ask for a little break and if they deny you get crappy with them and bring it up!
Ive thought about that but there is only 6 of us that work there so its pretty obvious who I am talking about, I love my s-i-l to bits but its just frustrating. It drives my other half mad because I get home in tears exhausted and refuse to kick up a stink...I feel stuck in a no win situation x
No I don't think you're being unreasonable. Maybe you should ask for some extra time off, without bringing the sister in law up. And then if they deny it, then mention how other people are getting breaks and they're not in the same physical situation as you, without mentioning names.
