One sympathizes that she lost her baby.
But she’s not a cashier at the local Walmart who had no other options.
She wanted the glamorous life of TV news.
Given the quality of her appearance, it’s not like her husband probably didn’t have money to provide for her as physically beautiful women seldom settle for unaccomplished men. She’s the one that went on a strenuous march about to give birth.
From the way she writes this, the men around her are in a damned if you do, damned if you don’t situation.
From the account, no one said anything out of line from the information they were provided.
If coworkers were not told she was pregnant, why shouldn’t they assume if they see her in stress that the condition was not food related.
If one had asked if she was pregnant, at best he would have been accused of “mansplaining” or at worst reported to the corporation’s human resources department. Yet she proceeds to criticize her colleagues as if they openly ridiculed the loss of her child.
So that’s why most decent men simply retreat into benign detached indifference, for which they are bitched at for that as well. But at least by doing that the living they have eked out cannot be legitimately seized as a result of an accusatory lawsuit. In this day and age, that is about the best you are going to be able to hope for.
