I attribute ita (not going to urgent care) to her boss who Does Not Get It and gives her shot for time missed from the office.
Eta: fucking iPhone. When I type shit, I mean "shit". Not shot.
Eta more: I'm just furious on behalf of ita and everyone else who can't seek medical treatment because of supervisors who can't "see" the pain. Maybe I'm just touchy because my absolute star of an employee battles migraines. He's always so thankful that I'm supportive and flexible to his environmental needs, and I tell him I love too many people who battle this insane invisible killer. And, like ita, he's phenomenally good employee. People aren't robots.
Despite the fact that they were given two different credit cards from two different people who checked in and out at different times, they only charged one card.
Oh, for pete's sake. Bah. Par for the course, though: I recall the bar also screwed up Perkins' bill.
I think urgent care might be a good choice for ita. I am a reluctant doctor goer myself, as I am also a hypochondriac, and it is very difficult to tell if I am really sick.
What javachik said. And love to her for being an awesome boss who Gets It.
I was hula-hoop champion of my highschool. I listed it under acheivements on my college application, and I still have the ridic homemade ribbon award they gave me. I should get a hoop for mac.
I can't hula hoop anymore. My hips just don't seem to work that way. (My)Sara loves hers, though. (No clue how our sara feels about it.)
Amy, have you tried a big adult hoop? Much, much easier than the kid ones. The bigger and heavier, the easier, generally.
msbelle, that could be a cool thing for Mac to get into. Active, creative, etc.
Hey, hivemind, is there a standard for formatting numbers in a document? Something like, under 100 you spell it out; over, you use digits? It's for my resume.
AP style is any number over 10 gets a numeral, but Chicago style (for longer books) is any word UNDER 100 is spelled out.
For a resume I'm not sure, but just make it consistent.
What are the numbers? Something like "Supervised fifteen people"? I'd probably spell it out, to look more professional, but I agree that it's most important that it be consistent.
