So apparently I'm indispensible...

[deathpixie]

Or at least apparently I can't actually not be here, since the world collapses, civilisations fall and Purolator goes insane and doesn't do what they've done for me for the past year.

I've been playing clean-up all morning. I foresee a talk from Jane tomorrow about how she's unhappy that she didn't have this week's files ready last week, and she'll be perfectly justified - sick or not, I dropped the ball badly. Vera's been a trooper and grabbed me something to eat, and I've already had one very large Coke this morning.

Yep, welcome back to the world, me. Can I go home again and hide?

Edit: Oh, and I have counselling today, so I'm working through lunch. Sure I can't go home?

No need to be pessi about it; you dropped the ball, you know it, you're working hard today to fix it and it will be fixed.

The hard work part sucks, I agree, but you're good at your job and you'll get it done.

Besides, if nothing else, I assume you're new clothes cute today. *beams!*

*hugs back* What Aisy said -- messing up at work is hard but they know you're a great worker, and you'll get through this. You've got a fantastic work ethic, you really do.

*hugs again* Incoming song, I think, for when you get home tonight and can listen to it...

You'll push through. Because you rock.

Also, due to identical icons, I have continually been getting you and Phil's LJ posts crossed in my head. How's that for shocking cognitive dissonance to start a Monday?

*hugs* The thing about life is that you can rarely plan for all of it.

I'll be honest, the moment you used the phrase 'sick or not' I went 'Bwha?' Sick is sick, usually it means your brain tends to shut down most other functions in order to concentrate on getting better. It's why you're usually better off at home and not near anything requiring higher function.

I've read your further lj post, so I know Jane wasn't Disappointed at you. The fact that you thought she would be makes me want to noogie you though. Any boss who gives their worker shit for looking after their health, is not a boss to be working for.
