Cause For Pregnant Pause, Part 25
I am eight months pregnant and a bartender. I get a lot of funny looks and am occasionally questioned whether I should work in a bar, but this woman customer takes the cake.
Customer: “Are you pregnant?”
Me: “I am! She’s due next month!”
Customer: “You might want to quit your job now.”
Me: “I’m sorry?”
Customer: “It’s illegal for pregnant women to be around alcohol!”
Me: “One, no, it’s not, and two, it’s my decision and the boss’s whether I work here or not. This is how I earn a living.”
Customer: “Quit your job right now!”
Me: “[Coworker], can you take over here? I’ll handle your end.”
He took over for the woman, and she continued to glare at me. Later, the manager told me, laughing like crazy, that I refused to quit my job and the woman was going to report us. The manager told her to go ahead. The woman actually tried to complain to the police, and they laughed at her.
