So I'm feeling pretty bad, guilty and on top of that extremely tired and well, poorly.

How's your day/night going?

Hello boss, thank you for bringing in boss' boss as well, I appreciate it.

So, boss, I understand you wanted to talk to me about my attendance due to being sick for several days and taking an unpaid day off. Before we get started, I'd like you to think carefully if what you have in mind to say would be a good look for the company, should someone in the press publish our conversation. Not that I'm threatening to go to the press! Ha ha ha no, of course not! It's just… well, what with COVID and all, I imagine people would wonder what could possess a person to penalize someone for taking a sick day. Why, they'd wonder about the competency of a manager that couldn't adjust to an employee taking ill. They'd wonder what dangers the company would submit it's customers to, seeing as they care so little about their employees.

But if course, that's not why we're here today, I'm sure! So what was it you wanted to discuss?
