OP, whenever I try to delete a post on my wall, Facebook tells me that only friends of the posting friend can see that post. I'm not sure if it's really the case, but I thought I'd mention it because I think it's possible not all of your friends could actually see your SIL's post.

I can sympathize. My own sister did the same thing to me. I was livid. When I sent her a text calmly explaining my displeasure, she never even responded. Whether someone tells you specifically that it's a secret or not, there are just certain things you don't take it upon yourself to share. |
Things I have learned from this post: _________________________________________________ 1. Sometimes is really good not to have too many relatives. 2. People are stupid and common sense is not so common. 3. Facebook is for losers, and I need to man-up and erase my account since I am on FB 5 times per year max. 4. Never, never, never one should mix work and pleasure and thus if you choose to have a FB account you either do it exclusively for work, hence no personal friends should be added or you do it exclusively for personal reasons and should NEVER add anyone from work. |
OP - I was "outed" at a company meeting. My DH and I worked at the same company. We were out on vacation when I learned I was pregnant, I immediately started spotting, saw my OB the first day back, had an ultrasound, and they told me that due to some complications I needed to be on bed rest....where I stayed for the entire 1st trimester. That was honestly one of the best-kept company secrets. Until....
I returned to work, not yet showing, and with everyone still feeling a bit nervous about my condition, I wanted to keep it quiet. That same day, we had a quarterly company meeting. HR was making announcements during the mtg about employee anniversaries, and as they got to each employee they'd say, "So and so has been here x years, and has been working on abc". They got to my hubby, "He's been here for 2 years and has been working on....working on...well we all know what he's been working on. Um...I mean...umm...you all know that they're expecting right?" In appropriate on so many levels. Hope this makes you laugh and that you know you are not alone ![]() |
If you don't people to know then you should keep it to yourself. |
Really? You didn't tell anyone you were expecting before you made a public announcement to all acquaintances, coworkers, distant family or friends? You parents found out the same time as your neighbor? What an unhelpful response. |
