conversation at work:
“are you the one who made the holiday coverage sign-up sheet?”

asking a boss for help reviewing a method i’m not familiar with: “okay, so this is this thing, and this is this thing, and this one gives us this set of limits; what is the *purpose* of this injection?” “oh there isn’t one.”

WELL OKAY THEN.

“because he did stop your rizatriptan and switched you to ubrelvy after your last visit …”

sure, okay, that would be great, but i never actually GOT ANY UBRELVY, so i’ve just been throwing excedrin and ibuprofen at my head for the last month and a half.

nothing like waking up to my mom going “are you okay? are you not going to work?”, realizing it’s an hour and a half after i wanted to be up, and then realizing that it’s because my phone DIED OVERNIGHT. plugged it in before sleep and it was fine. woke up and it was dead.

“be audit-ready at all times,” the supervisors say, in case we missed the previous 784 times they’ve said it this week.

and so much for doing ANY of what i had planned today. but on the other hand, an entirely different issue appears to be (slowly) getting resolved, so at least there’s that?
