Life with Diapers

I am the wife of a Corporate Drone by day, Rock Star by night. AND the best mom I can be to a gorgeous toddler. PLUS managing to work full time. And somehow I have turned 31.

Today's lesson...

Hello Kiddies...

Today's lesson is 'Make sure you know what you are talking about before you go opening your mouth'

Yes, it's that simple...Please make sure you know exactly what you are talking about before saying anything. Little Miss Ignorance has the WORST habit of thinking she knows what she is talking about and attempts to make herself look wise/smart/needed etc...

However, each and every time, She turns out to be wrong, one way or another. This seems to happen most when she is attempting to make me (or other co-workers) look bad or uninformed.
It's so funny because she talks with such conviction and is so sure of herself. I take pleasure in pointing out that she's wrong and then saying 'BURN' after it is proven (without a doubt) that she is wrong. I only say 'BURN' after we have gone back and forth for an hour, I don't come out with a 'BURN' after a simple error or mix-up. No, it's the ones where I have rock solid proof of something and I just sit there and watch her go down in flames.

She will also fight or argue even when she knows she is drowning! And after the delivery of my 'BURN' she will then turn the situation around, and say something stupid like 'Well, who has time to do that process, I sure don't, I have much more important things to do'-Like her homework on company time-.

If you are going to go opening your big fat yap, at least have the brains to put a disclaimer in front of it. Something along the lines of 'It was my understanding...Etc...' or 'I was under the belief that such and such...Etc'

Oh and on a side note...Please use proper English. There is no such word as 'mines'. Little Miss Ignorance likes to use that word to show possession. A perfect example, 'See that car out in the parking lot next to the Taurus, that's Mines.' Oh how I cringe when she says that in front of Management and Supervisors. She makes up words too! You should hear her on the phone with Customers, I bet they all have a good laugh when they hang up.
