Steph, make a complaint directly to Amazon about the merchant pressuring you to remove a negative review. I had the same happen to me, and Amazon dinged the merchant and refunded my money, even though I was keeping the product.
A vague disclaimer is nobody's friend.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

I didn't think of that! I'll do that. I'm amused the merchant tried to pin it on Amazon. No, dude, they generate expected delivery dates based on your own guidelines.

I know someone who works in merchant support at Amazon, and I know they WANT customers to tell them when merchants do dumb, frustrating stuff like that.

I have already watched this eleventy times. I can stand to watch it a few more.
Are you sure? I am paranoid about hallucinating burning smells.
Do you know about this? [link] If someone makes a joke about a seizure after someone mentions a burning smell, I just assume they are Canadian.

If I want to leave work early because I want to get my hair cut or forgot to pick up cat food or something I'll ask permission, but for a family emergency I do word notifications as informing my superiors that I *will* be gone rather than asking if I may. I'll usually make a comment about getting back to the office as soon as I can and leave a cell number, though.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
My aunt had phantom smells (particularly gasoline) before her TIAs and stroke, so I have a tendency to really want to identify where smells are coming from....
Haven't heard back from mechanic. I worry this means bad things.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Do you know about this?
I did not know about that specifically, no. I don't remember where I picked up that burning smell thing - it's been in my head a long time.

Sorry, Jesse, but for a family emergency, I would never use the words I hope to be able to, because if it's non-optional, you don't give your boss wiggle room to say you can't. You know you would have said yes, but an employee has no way to know that.

Yeah, you give some bosses any kind of wiggle room, and they'll say "Are you sure you're the one who needs to go take care of this?", then they reluctantly acquiesce when you say "Yes, I do," and they hint very hard that you should prioritize the job over most anything else. And you get dinged for not being a "team player" in your evaluations.

Doctor Penfield! I immediately went to that, Sue.
