WHAT? [face palm]

elizabite:

Me: How old is your little guy now?
Customer: He’s two and a half.
Me: And it looks like he’ll be getting a new brother or sister..?
Customer: Oh. Um, no.
Me: Oh my G_d. I am so sorry. I’m sorry.
[foot, meet mouth]
Customer: That’s okay.
Me: No, I’m sorry. This is why I *never* say things like that.
Customer: Really, it’s okay.

(conversation about having/being only children ensues)
Me: Once again, I am really sorry about that.
Customer: It’s okay. I hope it’s just the dress…
Me: It totally is.
[stomach, meet foot]

I got my policy towards this from a radiation safety officer at a university where I used to work: I don’t ask if a woman is pregnant unless I can actually see the baby crowning.
