I have never been so insulted

Last night, at work, we had a staff meeting. This teacher whom I had previously only spoken on the phone with (we work different nights) says to me out of the blue, "Are you pregnant? BECAUSE YOU LOOK SO FAT!"
me: o.O!!!!! OMGHOWDAREYOUSAYSUCHATHING!!!!!!!!!!!
Then this miserable excuse for a human had the nerve to sit next to me at the meeting. There was pizza and pop at the meeting, of course I did not have any.
her: Are you going to have any?
me: No thanks, pizza is unhealthy.
her: Are you Canadian? I thought all Canadians ate junk food.

Now she is this weak scrawny little pile of skin and bones and I would just LOVE to know what parasite crawled up her @ss and died. I would also love to take her outside and beat the #%^#^ out of her until she cried for mercy. I seriously have never been so insulted in my life!

HI

As a fellow Canadian and a fellow diet Board member I Have been Insulted before as well.

That "you know what" whether trying to be funny or not... is a loser. I pretend when

insulted not to hear ..I just ignore...If it keeps going on I will tell the person that

if they do not cease I will file a complaint of harassment and/or defamation of character.

That alwyas shuts them up. You have to keep your cool. I know it is hard but it is the

best way to keep your chin up and respect youself. You have more class than all those big

mouths out there.

When people say stuff like that to me--in a public setting I usually tell them that a side affect of the medicine is weight gain with wide eyes and a trembling lower lip, then walk away. It's petty white lie but it's my mechanism that prevents me from explaining to someone my diet and weight loss regime. It will at least make the person stop and think about what they've said. If there's a chance you may see them again just explain to them at a later time that you thought their answer was inappropriate and didn't require an answer.

What a piece of crap that "teacher" is. Please don't take her to heart, rude ass
ignorant people like that say that crap to make themselves look "good". I would have
gotten up and sat elsewhere and when it came time for the pizza, I would have eaten
as many pieces of pizza I could!
