She Was Honest About Not Wanting Her Coworker To Continue Bringing Their Baby To Work, But Her Opinion Wasn’t As Well Received As She Anticipated
This 29-year-old woman currently works the night shift as a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) at an assisted living facility.
She also has a coworker named Jessie, who works the day shift as a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA).
However, Jessie is interested in switching to the night shift, and she’s just not too thrilled about that.
Apparently, she and several other coworkers feel that Jessie is lazy. And that’s only their main issue.
Jessie also has a 1-year-old child and actually brings the baby to work with her during the day.
“I don’t know how Jessie got permission or why they let her, but oh well,” she said.
Now she is currently married, but she and her husband do not yet have kids. And they are interested in having children someday, just not in the near future.
Still, she admitted that she just is not a super patient person, even though she’s trying to work on it, and she just cannot stand when babies are crying or screaming for a long time.
“Yes, I know that if I want my own, I will have to endure it,” she noted.

But, when it comes to her coworker bringing a child to work, she thinks that’s just unnecessary.
So, when she and her coworkers started discussing the topic of Jessie possibly switching to the night shift, she didn’t hold back her opinion.
She straight-up told her coworkers and her boss that Jessie would not be bringing the baby to work.
“I’m not listening to a screaming crying baby all night,” she told the group.
Well, while she thought she was justified, most of the other employees just kind of stared at her as if she had two heads.
Then, one of her coworkers pointed out how she must not have children.
She took that opportunity to tell the group that that was the very reason why she only wanted one kid. But, yet again, everyone just stared at her.
“I just don’t think children should be coming all the time to a place like this, anyways,” she vented.
Still, after how her coworkers looked at her, she’s been left wondering whether saying that she didn’t want her coworker’s baby being brought to work made her a real jerk or not.
Is bringing a child to work sometimes unavoidable? Do you believe it’s an appropriate thing to happen often? Do you think an assisted living facility is a safe place for a baby? Was she in the wrong for honestly expressing her opinion to her coworkers?
