    15 minutes into my workday and I was down the back of the work yard, doubled over and crying. Why am I doing this to myself? Why am I doing this to this business? Why is this business doing this to me?

    Counting down the minutes until 5pm.

      If I was your manager or colleague I’d be strongly suggesting that you step away, take a break and take all the time off that you need with absolutely no worries.

      So I hope that you’re OK, and is there anything we can do to help? If you want I’ll send you monies for a free pizza?

          This is a very sweet offer, thank you! I’ll pass your offer to someone who might need pizza a little more than me, I’m out for Indian with some friends tonight so hopefully that’ll cheer me up!

      Maybe you could write off today and go home sick? Some couch time might help.

      Take care of yourself.
