Work: Quota

Quota

By lazy pregnant girl - This FML is from back in 2012 but it's good stuff - United States

Today, my boyfriend told me that because he works fifty hours a week, I should be meeting an arbitrary quota of fifty hours of housework, and if I don't, I'm insensitive and ungrateful. FML

Today, my boyfriend called work because he is sick. Then he called me 4 times while I was working, to complain that I was working, and then he got mad when I told him I was sick and worked a double shift 2 days in a row, apparently that is insensitive of me. FML

Today, I finally landed a new job, and thinking he would be proud, I told my boyfriend. Instead of congratulating me, he got mad that my work hours include Saturday, his laundry day. FML

Today, my girlfriend told me I could sleep in. Twenty minutes later, she was banging on the door, yelling, "Get up, fat lazy fuck! It's seven o'clock, we have chores! You expect me to do everything for your worthless ass!" FML

Never enough

Today, after weeks of my girlfriend complaining that I don't help with the chores, I secretly took a day off work to deal with some that were piling up. When she got home, all she could do was complain about how I hadn't done more. FML

Today, after my boyfriend used to tell me that, with his demanding job, he just didn’t have the time or energy for a meaningful conversation with me. Thanks to COVID, he works 90% less now, finding time for online college, cooking and new furniture, yet didn’t invest even one extra minute into our couple. FML

Today, my boyfriend asked me to pick up a few things from the store for him while he was at work. After picking up everything he asked for, I wasn't left with much money so I used $50 from my account. When he got home he then grumbled about me spending all of "his" money. FML

Stressed out

Today, I complained to my boyfriend that I was stressed out. He asked me, "What do you have to be stressed out about?" I work 50 hours a week and go to school full time. I ask him what was stressful about his day, he told me that his "kill/death ratio went down on Call of Duty." FML

I wouldn't normally bash OP's significant other, but considering your name, I'd say he's either pulling your leg, or he's kind of a dick.

He forgot to include the fifty sandwiches a day you'll have to make for him too.

Um.... In wondering why he has a job and you don't? Unless you have kids, sittin on your ass at home is unacceptable. Being in school is no excuse either, plenty of part time jobs out there. I'm with your bf, F his life for having to do all the work!

all u girls bitchin about bein pregnant prevents u from doin shit is an excuse. i had a manager who was prego and she didnt take time off til the last couple weeks or so, pullin 40 plus a week. she had to do her own house work since she lived alone. grow up and accept responsiblity. its not goin to kill her to do sum dishes or vacuum a room once a week.

I want to feel a little bad or sorry for you. But I can't, I watched my Uncle who works 12 hours shift, with a 45 minute lunch break comes home to a dinner that he had to make and prepare himself. While his wife sat around in their bedroom all day. (Lunch he eats out. Why? His wife a.k.a. ny aunt ain't awake yet. His Lunch is at 12 in the AFTERNOON.)
