Dear Coworker:

Did I ask your opinion about my feet and ankles today? YES, I know they are enormous and YES, I watch my intake of salt ritually, even before I was pregnant. NO, I do not need your stupid comments in front of the entire staff AND patients!!

Please keep your opinionated, snobby, loud-mouth comments to yourself!

Re: Dear Coworker:

What an idiot. Next time I would say something to the effect of "yes, my ankles and feet are swollen, thanks so much for mentioning it!"

I can't believe people have such nerve!!! Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

I know it's hard (because I'm the worst at this), but I really think you need to put her in her place. Even nicely. I would just say something like, "Listen, I appreciate your concern, but your comments are really hurting my feelings. I know you're trying to help, but I'm fine! Really!"
