Oh man, so all week I’ve been nagging my manger to tell me what my xmas bonus is gonna be . Basically, how well our branch did mixed with our own personal sales accomplishments over the year.
Said he wasn’t ready to tell me yet and told me to buy him a coffee and maybe he’d let me know, :joy:
He asked how much I he thought I deserved and I said 1500 cause I’m awesome LOL
So yesterday morning I actually brought him a coffee not thinking Id really get to find out this week, but right before I left yesterday he called me into his office and gave me my special bonus letter and it’s actually more than I ever thought I’d get :joy:
:joy::smiley:
Which is a super good thing cause I totally overspent for xmas crap. I got marshall a customized Super Mario nightlight that says his name, heh. Cause why would anyone not want something like that?!

Hemorrhoids are a common occurrence in the weightlifting community, likely from all the extreme Valsalva-ing we do. They are usually a self-limited, nuisance condition, although they can be quite painful if they become thrombosed. Talk to your check-up doc; s/he can recommend some simple things you can do that will speed resolution, or refer you to a surgeon for banding/removal if indicated (it’s a minor, in-office procedure).

Hemorrhoids are a minor medical condition–that is, until you’re the person who gets one, at which point they seem as serious and distressing as a heart attack. Since your reaction is the same as that of just about everyone else who gets one, I wouldn’t call it an over-reaction. :smiley:

Also, I stubbed my toe on the door and every thing in life that involves wearing shoes is extremely painful. Does it look broken? Am I gonna die?!?!?!

yesterday was an emotional nightmare

So on wed I was off work and my toe was getting worse so I msg my friend a picture to show my boss to ask him if on Thursday I could be in just socks again. HE said I could wear sandals. I didn’t own any… he said I could be in just one shoe
I thought holy fuck im already nuts about my imbalances you want me to stand for 7 hrs on one shoe and limp around all over the place
I agreed but only cause my mom said she had sandals for me to try
so I tried them on and the pain was still unbearable and I was basically in tears so I called in sick and went to the docs to get a note.
But we literally have no staff and I could walk just fine as long as I was in socks so I spent all day having a horrible guilt induced panic attack about everything, uhg. it lasted like 10 hours, super uncomfortable
.
My note was for today and tomorrow cause I figured xmas eve aint nobody gonna care if im in socks ill go in take my shoes off without even asking and that will be that.
but I called my boss and left a msg saying I know you need my Friday and ill come in just as long as I can be in only socks
so he called me back and said that was fine so I guess all is “sane” in my world again.
