I was minding my own business, listening to a little Eric Church on the iPod, when I had to take my headphone out (ear buds...only one works) because I could hear half of a conversation. I work in a call center, and at first I thought the girl was yelling at a customer. Then I thought it was a bill collector, because she said "I should not have to take these calls at work!"
It was her mom. Pestering her about money. "I am writing the check for you right now. I don't have a stamp or an envelope, so I'll have to give it to you when I get home."
And the clincher?
"You know I forget. I have memory problems. All the drugs you had me on for 3 years, this is a result of that."
When she got off the phone, she said "Jesus Effing Mary And Joseph"
I'm in an office with a LOT of people. And you could tell they were all listening. It wasn't just me!

I think you should consider that your lesson of what NOT to do in parenting for the day :-)
Uff da... wow.
There is a guy where I work that drops the F bomb along with Jesus Christ and God d****t a lot. Sometimes while he's on the phone... with clients.
Yikes!
That's why I try not to take personal calls at work.
