Damn. I can think of a billion sarcastic things to say....
"So, you're just hoping that if part of my brain dies, it'll be a non-work-related part, huh?"
I just think it's rather odd that a nation that prides itself on its virility should feel compelled to strap on forty pounds of protective gear just in order to play rugby.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Stroke? And giving shit about seeing doctors?? Seriously? There has to be some ADA law that covers that, no?
Well he probably can't fire her for it, but he can be really annoying about it.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
I add my wrath to the general boss-smiting.
t curls up in corner of thread.
I'm hiding from my to-do list. Think it'll work?

smonster, I'll hide from your to-do list, if you'll hide from the academia's evil plan to make me think the way THEY want. I like my way so much better.

Wait. Is T working for Aimee's old boss?!?

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
I shall add a smiting of my own.
May T's boss and Aimee's boss, be they one and the same or just akin of spirit, have continual and eternal heartburn, together with an itchy and painful rash, that no doctor can identify nor find any remedy that helps.

Unfortunately suing his ass is probably also a stress she doesn't need right now. Although, I still think you bookstore asshat should win the clueless asshat of the year award.

Not unless he has two jobs and a very long commute. Sad to know there are two such asshat bosses in the world though.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Zenkitty, you're a Buffista. Hence, not a stranger.
Aw, thanks, Shir! I think if all the energy you've been giving your friend were really helping her, she'd be needing less energy by now.
as an individualist, I'd like to have the full credit when creating evil.
ha! I knew I liked you.
You can call a pig a chicken, but that doesn't make it kosher.
This needs to be on a t-shirt or something.
Good fortune with resolving the worrisome cat situation, Fay!
Does perhaps T's boss not fully comprehend what a fucking "stroke" is? A friend and co-worker of mine has been fighting cancer - she's doing amazingly well and seems now to be free of it -and her boss expected her to come back to work the day after she finished chemo, when she was so weak she could hardly walk. Despicable heartless corporate minions.

I think what T's boss is probably thinking that she looks fine, and, therefore, must be fine. While what he doctors are thinking is that she is lucky this time, and they want to do everything possible to avoid a next time.
The day after chemo? Seriously? Heartless ass.
