had my annual "you are almost over your limit for sick leave before we have to start disciplinary action" meeting

which always feels interestingly like disciplinary action

anyway they have a goddamn note on file from my doctor because we've been over this every single year, but i've changed managers 3 times and directors twice so i guess i'm just going to have to keep explaining that not everyone has the luxury of being a "model" employee who never takes a sick day because for some reason that's what that entails and not just like, my actual work which is mostly excellent
