Replacing A Labor Coach With A Labor Couch
(My husband and I are expecting our first baby. My husband’s supervisor wants to send him out of state for a week of training right after the baby is due. His supervisor calls me.)
Supervisor: “Well, I know that you’re due to have your baby soon, but I really want [Husband] to go to this week-long training session.”
Me: “Hey, you know that white couch your wife has in the living room?”
Supervisor: “Yes.”
Me: “If you send [Husband] out for that training session, when I go into labor I’m coming over to your house and having this baby on that couch.”
(My husband’s supervisor decided that he could put off the training for a while.)
