Reply to comment by dieforestmusic in TIFU by trying to call out sick: a fever dream saga. by DreyaNova

In my case it WAS a dream so I had to keep trying over and over. Kept waking up to realize I had only dreamt calling. It was brutal. I FINALLY called for real. But it took many tries.

I also used to dream I got out of bed, got dressed, etc. Then I would wake up and have to do it all over again for real. Made Mondays suck doubly.

I’ve done the same on occasion. Usually I’m running late to work and as I’m walking in I wake up. I have to do the morning over again but I guess I’m on time now, so idk.

It sucks the worst when it is a bitter cold damp Monday. Who wants to do that multiple times!

When I was running heavy shifts that I wasn't used to (12+ hours) this would happen to me all the time. My wife would wake me up, I'd very groggily get dressed and then... My wife would wake me up again saying that I HAD to get up or I'd be late. I was on fact, not up or dressed, just dreamed it all.

Stuff like this happens to me all the time when I'm sleepy. I think I already sent that mail, but only thought I did. Well tbf most of that stuff happened back when I had to get up at 6am regularly. Anything before 10am is early for me. My brain just doesn't work before 8am.
