this is a stupid attitude too. being on-call means you're making sacrifices even if you never actually get paged

I was on call without additional pay while I was in the military, where I was actually owned by my employers. This was to keep things running after some Scandanavian volcano threw ash in the air that degraded a fleet of aircraft. This is my personal bar for urgent on-call activity, if it doesn't pass that bar then fuuuuuuuuuuck that pay me and give me a phone.

Playbooks are meant to be read by someone you've never met, to be stored in a drawer nobody opens, during an hour no one should be in. They are invaluable to operations that are 24/7, have kafka-esq turnover, and way more people than a single brain can keep phone numbers for.

Same. Working payroll was what radicalized me. There's no merit or sense in this system, just leashes for the dogs who rely on wages instead of drawing power directly from the source (PPP Forgiveness).

The desire for portfolio work is what turns every private bootcamp's capstone into a blog post. Which is a marvel in way, to take someone who has not touched computer and get them to learn enough rituals to stand up a WordPress blog in AWS and configure the network to exclude known malicious actors.

So here I am forging a doctor's note in GIMP because we live in a hell world where folks can just demand that so easy.

I used a medical document from our past, unfortunately it is from a different state, so forwarded email explains the labs faxed it to us and I scanned it to pdf. Totally normal thing to happen. The altered file has been scanned and faxed before being printed to capture that authentic artifact degredation. It helps mask the font differences in the dates. Timelines have been made consistent with the present day. Headers and footers preserved. All references to age redacted by sharpy, printout will be waved in front of manager face then returned due to HIPPA concerns.

This may be my magnum opus for crafting makework props used for kabuki theater. I still got it baby~

that barely matters

doctors can sign and prescribe, like, meth and morphine. that poo poo is in an online database but doctor signatures are Serious Business

I think you are confusing a doctor's note to mean an actual message and letter stating the patient must be on light work for fear of permanent damages signed ~doctor~. Employers have no need for that, what they're asking for is proof of physical presence at a place explaining why the human component was outside their cube.

So, I just got a lab draw form to fabricate a visit and that's like barely fraud in this world of Apes and NDAs.
