So the SAME mother that I was whining about before (and didn't terminate) is pregnant, and already in her second trimester. This means maternity leave in the spring, which means I will be down a kid. Problem is, she hasn't told me. A mutual friend let it slip. Also, she doesn't intend on telling me any time soon. Why? Because she is up for a new job, and will know whether she got the position in the next week or two. Now, if she gets the new position, it would mean that she will need an extra day of care, as she is currently only Monday to Thursday. If she needs an extra day of care, I would have to terminate one of my part-timers in order to accomodate her new schedule, and she KNOWS THIS. How unfair is that?

So my question is, do I call her on it? Do I wait until she asks about the extra day of care, and if I wait, do I tell her that I know she is pregnant and that she is trying to take me for a ride?

I am annoyed. I don't want to get the friend in hot water though, as the very day the friend told me, my dck's mom called her up and was very adament that she not tell me that she is pregnant! This is really drama that I do not want or need.
Don't terminate your part timer as ashe is part time too? If she asks for the space on the extra day then she can't have it. Seems simple to me!

She may not even get the position! I would go with the flow and cross that bridge when it comes.

Is she showing? If so I would just say is there something your not telling me and point to the bump! If shes meaty then you can't!

P.S How would this be fair to your part timer?
