Her back looks fine here: OctoMom -- It Was a Very Goodyear - TMZ.com I hope after they take her kids away, they investigate her for insurance fraud and lock her away.

Sorry, I meant the state as in the government, not the normal people. :thumbup:

Much less carry eight of them. It's because she's milking the system way beyond the time she was qualified for benefits.

Just one day. Extra good wishes and hugs for tomorrow. :thumbup:

Oh wow, HUGE good vibes and mucho prayers for you. :thumbup:

Thanks for the hugs and advice. I do plan on typing it all up on my computer tonight because I do expect something to come of this or be mentioned about it when the other two bosses get back (the one tomorrow and the big boss later in the month).

I just thought that what's going on here is proof of what we're saying about the breeder.

1) She put her business out there. 2) Once she does something like this and the people are paying for it, it BECOMES our business.

Yes, I do, and I raised mine. I paid for mine. I supported mine and was there without dumping MY responsibility on my family. Nor was I nuts. This woman undoubtedly has a screw loose. Thirty seconds into her interview showed me that.

That's interesting... especially considering you said: My children are 27,24,23,22,21,19,18,17,15 &13. The 24,22 & 21 year olds I didn't deliver myself, just raised. So... assuming the three OLDEST are gone, that would mean that you have kids aged 23, two 22's, two 21's, and 19 that are adults -- and one of these kids has had a baby -- all still living at home. Why is it that they can't make it on their own. :thumbup:

No, the best thing for the childrens' sake is to find them good homes and adopt them out to people who aren't nuts.

Since you haven't had babies in many years, nor did you have EIGHT of them at once with six others that are 7 years old and younger, you have no idea what the cost is these days. Daycare ALONE (something you claim you didn't have to pay because you were a stay-at-home-mom) is probably going to run more than a lot of people make in a year. She won't have the luxury of staying home if she truly goes out to get schooling or get a job. She WILL have daycare expenses. That is, if that stupid state of Californication doesn't pick up the tab for THAT too... :thumbup:

The good thing is I don't NEED-need the job. We put probably 75 percent of my pay away into savings and 401k. If something happened, we wouldn't sink. And though I can swallow many things in life, being abused isn't one of them.

'Nuther bad day. The boss who hollered at me yesterday called me into her office first thing when I got in this morning. I said good, I was planning on talking with her anyway. She was mad that I left yesterday, and she was mad that she was given this file to do something with that she said she didn't have time for. I said I was TOLD to give it to her by the bigger boss, and secondly, I don't make it a point to "just leave" work. She said I was unprofessional for doing so, and I stopped her mid-sentence and asked just how unprofessional was it for her, a much higher up than me, to be standing outside my cubicle yelling at me?? She claimed she didn't yell; I claimed I had at least one witness who came by afterward with eyes as big as saucers. This went back and forth for at least 10 minutes. I said finally, "This will NEVER happen again. You will NEVER talk to me in that manner EVER. I don't get paid enough to put up with abuse like that over something that was essentially nothing." She kept disputing whether it was "yelling" or "raising her voice." Cuz I'd "know" it if she was yelling. Whatever. She said if it happens again, I will be docked LWOP. I said I don't anticipate this (meaning her yelling again) to happen again, but if it does, I will take it up with HR. I said she has gone from being the "nice one" to being a bully who makes it a habit of yelling at people in the office and clientele that comes in. Of course she denied this too. I said I didn't even know who she was anymore, that she is not the same person. She said other actions/behaviors have nothing to do with what we're talking about. I said it has EVERYthing to do with what we're talking about when she's making it a habit of being abusive to staff. I reminded her that professionalism starts at the top; and just because she has the high position, etc., does not mean that she is a respectful individual. Anyway, the new boss comes back from training tomorrow, and the big boss is out of town until the 23rd, I think. Of course she already knows about this since this boss called her -- but of course she only told her side which, I am sure, did NOT include her yelling at me. I'm expecting the one coming back tomorrow to start it up again with me, but I'm really not in a mood to include somebody that wasn't even there. The good thing is, the one witness I have is very respected by the big boss who is out of town and once he tells her what he heard, I think there will be a whole new spin on things.

And having a clown car va-jay-jay has never been truer!

THANK you!!! It's that entitlement gene that is getting further and further ingrained in our society -- "I WANT IT NOW SO I'M GONNA GET IT NOW." There is a HUGE difference between somebody falling on legitimately hard times and another person CREATING them because she's selfish.

Well said. Otherwise, I'd have the Ferrari I want, and you all could pay for it for me. :biggrin:

Tood news, Tippy Tap! :biggrin:

Wasn't it you that said she likely wouldn't have even passed the psych eval for a lap-band? If not you, it was still truer than true. And yes, I also hold the clinic HUGELY responsible for this. Donna: Put aside the tax dollars -- and put it back on the fact that the kids will suffer for her selfishness. Most people I know wouldn't even be allowed to own four cats or dogs in a regular neighborhood.

I blame left-wing liberals. :biggrin:

If God had wanted her to have children, they wouldn't have been made in a petri dish. She went against God's will, and now she is being villianized (as she should be) by the general public. This was HER will, not God's will.

I was under the impression that when they weigh in, it's after a week's time. Three months sounds closer to correct from what I recall when they come back to the show (like they say they've been off the ranch x amount of time). But I can't swear to know because it's been some time since I've really followed it.

I guess what gets me -- and I don't know whether I'm like amazed or shocked -- is how HE is shocked by all of this. I wonder how he thought YOU felt when you found out he was carrying on an affair for 18 months! :biggrin:

You don't even use deductive reasoning or common sense, based on what you have here. It's like you post and all I hear is Kumbaya in the background, but the content of what you say is as fluffy as cotton candy -- no substance. What you say she "can" do is not realistic even giving her the slightest benefit of the doubt.

I'm guessing you had the luxury/benefit of being a stay-at-home mom because YOUR SPOUSE WAS WORKING. This woman doesn't have that. As for her family, her father went back to Iran to maybe raise money, and her mom is at her wit's end.
