Usually there are policies about discussing pay issues, as in, they should not be shared.
This is what I'm saying! Sheesh. At least the increase will be retroactive when it finally comes.
Mal: How come you didn't turn on me, Jayne? Jayne: Money wasn't good enough. Mal: What happens when it is? Jayne: Well... that'll be an interesting day.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Jesse, if pay increases when you finish probation are normal operating procedure, I might not consider it inappropriate as long as actual amounts are not being spoken aloud.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I don't think I can do the trazadone thing. I'm really dizzy this morning, and pretty sure I can't actually drive.
Which is separate, I think, from the marked lack of continuous sleep I got last night. I've also noticed more hypotensive moments (not just at the ER, but also when I stand up) since I started taking it.
I need to call in incapacitated to work today, as well as get the sleep doc's number and call her about the meds.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
That sucks, ita.
ION, Man discovers Dalek in the rings of a tree, claims it's Jesus
It's so clearly a Dalek - I mean, it looks much more like a Dalek than Jesus.

I suppose it could also be Davros upside down smoking a cigar, but that's just implausible.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I am also going to be in the not at work today group, because I had to take the anti-nausea with bonus sedative drug this morning, which means I feel fine, but can't drive.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The ER visit broke the really bad migraine that was Saturday, as well as the comically intense nausea. As in, head still hurts and I'm not eating (Sunday was a bowl of cereal, whoot whoot), but it's a lot better than before.
Man, I feel so foggy I'm regretting having called in working from home when there's an 8am con call. Having a hard time resolving double vision. Doctor better not be pissy about this.
