Frosty reception

Chilly start to the day.
I was good and asked for a couple "mental health days" in February. The response was to make me feel guilty about asking (even though there would be a full compliment of staff and I chose a time that I was already clear of the on call rota). But all was fine by the end of the day. I think they're brain filter was malfunctioning was all (in hindsight).
