Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That is crazy. Pardon my language.

Oh Allyson. That sucks ass.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

If I'm having a crisis I should call 911. Which will bring me the JPL fire department. Then everyone at work will know I'm crazy. Thanks for the advice, lazy receptionist! I have an appointment to talk to the medical leave folks today. At least they're helpful.

I can make calls and be on hold for you and then connect to you when I get someone if that would be a help.

Aw thanks Ms Nicest. I will call the crisis counselor when I get home after I get my leave paperwork from hr. how do I keep coworkers from knowing why I'm gone? Help me figure out a lie?

Because books.

"Family responsibilities," Allyson.

I'm glad you're able to do this, even if getting there is a bitch.

You're sick. It's not a lie.

Well, especially if they know about any of the stomach issues, you can just say its a medical problem and you rather not talk about it.

Technically, if you get FMLA, the HR person needs to know why (doctor has to write a note) but that is supposed to be confidential and covered by HIPAA.

I am also a fan of the phrase, "It's a private matter," but since I apparently give off an air of New England chill, perhaps that sort of thing is easier for me to get away with.
