    An old supervisor of mine came in really excited one day. I asked him for help with something so he came and sat with me. Before I could start he excitedly explained this his sister was pregnant. He said she wasn’t telling anybody until after 12 weeks in case something happened. I was trying to make him feel better about spilling the beans but what I said was “Don’t worry, something could happen after 12 weeks.”

    There was this moment where we just stared at each other in horror. I sort of shrugged to say I don’t know why I did that.

    Worse thing: something did happen after 12 weeks.
