Grandma developed the land a couple of decades ago. Her house is still there, but the "little houses", as we called them, and barn and everything are gone. It's a small subdivision, now.
We're taking a moment ... and we're done.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Is slightly less than three months on a new job too soon to take a sick day?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Are you sick?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Hey, if you're sick, you're sick. And if you're not sick - well, they don't have to know that....

Did you start accruing sick time as soon as you started or was there a waiting period?

I'm at the almost tail end of a migraine that just won't go all the way away.

It starts accruing right away, but there is a line in the policy about "employees should try not to take sick days for x months". I just can't remember if x is 2,3, or 6.
Feh.

If you're sick, take the sick day, Perkins.

Er, bullshit. Not that it isn't in the policy, but if you're sick, stay home.
