The Interrogation

I woke up with a migraine. I needed to take my full dosage of my prescribed medicine in order to get rid of it. So I called work to tell them just that. I said I was coming in, but I would be there a couple hours later than when my shift started.

This is what I have to go thru:

"What time did you get in last night?"
"1:30am" [None of her business]

"It's not a 4 hour commute to Central."
"You're right. It's 1 hour and 45 to 50 minutes there and 1 hour and 45 to 50 minutes back."(without traffic) [She's calling me a liar.]

"There are only 2 reasons that cause a migraine; red wine and chocolate."
"There are other reasons that can cause a migraine." [She's an idiot if she thinks that. She is also insinuating that I drank wine (which I didn't) and that I have a hangover from it. But even if I did, I'm allowed to and it's none of her business if I did or did not.]

"I talked to other people and they said that they couldn't believe that you would call out on the 26th." [She's airing laundry to other stores? That's not professional. And plus, if we were so busy, why does she have so much time on her hands to call other managers?]

"You need to act professional when you call out sick."
"I didn't feel good." [You get what you get when I call. She doesn't know the level of my pain. Plus, I wasn't on the clock when I called out the 2 hours. ]

I called HR and filed a complaint.

The Procrastinator

4:20pm - I have 2 hours open to do my taxes today. Yes, it's December and I haven't done them yet. Every day that I'm off from work, I make a list of what things I need to do and priortize it. Taxes have made the To Do list every time, but it's usually one of the last items on the priority list. Cleaning usually comes before that, and that usually doesn't get done either.

Nap or Taxes - Nap or Taxes - Nap or Taxes - Nap or Taxes...hmmm....

I'll report in a couple of hours, unless I procrastinate on that too.
