My T was trying to joke and said that if I worked at his job and had that many days off, that I would have been on probation. He obviously forgot at that moment how much stress I feel at taking time off work (for three different health reasons!) and I was really hurt by the implication that I shouldn't be taking all that time off. I told him about it the next week and he apologized - he had been trying to joke (which I knew) but it was more based around the fact that their sick policy had recently changed.
