When Paperwork Gets Too Personal

This afternoon, I finally began filling out some of the paperwork required for my upcoming maternity leave and short-term disability check. The disability form is the same whether your "condition" is pregnancy or a nail in the head. Every line must be completed, and I had to laugh at these questions in particular:

Nature of your illness/accident: pregnancy

Date first noticed: ummm...

What do you believe caused your disability? (include the time, date, and location of accident): uhhhh...

Do you feel a third party is responsible for your disability, or has made your condition worse? Noooo...

Instead of the usual N/A, I think I'm going to fill the blanks with NOYB. None of Your Business.
