I just got through to my bosses (5 men) that I have a chronic illness which affects me enough I can't always be at work - although I have never missed a full day there yet for my IBS (damn loyalty anyway..) But in 5 years, they just figured out lately - gee, Cass hasn't been herself lately - for 2 1/2 months!! I hope your new co-workers are easier going than my bosses!!

Happy Birthday Nel!! (Maybe Lock will blow you a kiss during Lost!) It's ggod that you had the talk, it's much easier, because I've found when I try to hide it, it's much more stressful. I hope things are going well in your job other than that!

First off, Happy Birthday, Nelly!!!!!
Second, at my former job, I had to explain because they all knew I went for a colonoscopy. At this job, I waited a few months before saying anything. A woman I work with has IBS-D, so that helped make things easier. It also helps that I work with/for a GREAT female boss (no offense to the guys....it's just easier talking to the same sex). I had some problems when I first started working here, so I had to say something. Things are MUCH better now. This job is A LOT less stressful than my other one!

I had a nice birthday. I got cake at work and everybody wished me happy birthday (probably because I had a big leftover cake on my desk that read "IRTHDAY").
