Man Tells Pregnant Wife She Will Have To Go Back To Work After Giving Birth Because She Deliberately Ruined Five Of His Job Interviews

We all have goals in life, and they are different for every person. However, there are some goals that most people pursue—career and family.

It is challenging to combine both, so both partners should put in the effort. Naturally, we all expect support from our partners, especially when working to make our life together easier and better.

The new reality has forced us to blend family and work, making it hard to draw the line between them. Reddit user @/veganwizard decided to share his story to illustrate how difficult things can be when there is no support.

The 27-year-old has a 24-year-old wife who is currently six months pregnant with their first child. The narrator has begun looking for a better-paying job, considering their situation and his wife's desire to become a stay-at-home mom after giving birth.

The man was fortunate enough to land a job in the IT industry, where he would be paid three times as much as he is now. One of the interview components included a test that allowed the workplace to assess the interviewee's competency.

The conditions included taking the test alone, conducting internet searches, and remaining silent. Because the interview was conducted online, the narrator was able to do it from the comfort of his own home.

Knowing this, the husband informed his wife and requested that she remain silent during this time. However, she did not...

OP shared his problem:

Reddit

His wife wants to be a SAHM, so he must find a better-paying job

Reddit

He had an important interview

Reddit

And he had to do a test

Reddit

He told his wife about it, but she didn't care...

Reddit

So he did what he thought was right—he ignored her

Reddit

She yelled at him and turned the music on—loud.

Reddit

Of course, the distraction caused him to fail the exam.

Reddit

OP is furious because this is the fifth interview she has ruined

Reddit

So he told her she should start working after giving birth.

Reddit

The Redditors mostly agree:

Reddit

This is good advice

Reddit

It is hard to understand her actions...

Reddit

Five interviews? Really?

Reddit

It is perfectly reasonable to expect people around you to be quiet during important interviews...

Reddit

What is the wife thinking?

Reddit

It is clearly a pattern...

Reddit

Yes, that's how it is done...

Reddit

It is the way it should be...

Reddit

This might work... But it is sad that it has to be done.

Reddit

It is unclear why the wife acted the way she did. Did she change her mind about staying home with the child? Or was she simply jealous of her husband’s potential success?

We feel that some detail is missing that would make this story easier to understand. It’s hard to believe that the wife would act like this just out of the blue.

Whatever the reason, we hope they will work it out. Landing a good job is hard, and so is finding a good nanny.
