BIG FLUFFY DOG
Feb 16, 2011

On the internet, nobody knows you're a dog.


Some background: when I was 16 my parents went through a divorce and it hit me pretty hard and I made some really bad decisions. I got mixed-up in the wrong crowd, took some drugs I shouldn’t have took, failed a bunch of classes, spent some time in Juvie and made a poorly-worded deal with the capricious gods that cursed me with the “gift” of prophecy.

I know what you’re thinking: prophecy? How’s that a curse? Yeah tell that to all my failed relationships and lost jobs over the years. Besides the fact that I had to become legally blind “for the look of the thing” I can barely control when it even flares up and if I even try to use my gift for personal gain or accept any kind of payment for my visions fuckin’ Apollo afflicts me with plague and misfortune. Once I let a dude buy me a coors after a fortune; I had gout for a week and my house burned down. So Mr. Teenage Dumbass put himself on disability for the rest of his life in exchange for the world’s least-lucrative and most off-putting party trick.

Flash forward 10 years: I had joined a support group that’s been helping me to manage my visions for the past 2 years and I got a really cool job at this socially-aware company that tries to put disabled people to work when I relapsed and relapsed hard and accidentally told a co-worker his exact time and manner of death.

I’ve already had to speak to HR about it and they’re taking it really seriously. I have documentation for my blindness but not the whole Oracle of Apollo thing because its “not really a disability”. Help me out thread! I’ve just signed a lease and really don’t want to lose my job, there’s not a lot of other companies out here that hire the blind. :(

shovel on shoulder and map in hand
filled with hope sees two palms in an X and digs
He is a fool and gladly misses
That he is digging on quicksand
A chest sits away on the other side of the isle
In it: a paper with a four-word treasure

That's a pretty bad story without telling us what the time and manner of death in question was.
Was it "stapler to the face, in 3 seconds"? That would explain HR being particularly hot under the collar about it.
Edit: because it's a misuse of company property.

Anonymously deliver your prophecies through a wireless speaker hidden inside a statue or a dead cat, some kind of dumb poo poo like that. I think that's how Apollo did it back when he was drinking all the time and would just never shut the gently caress up.

op have you consulted any local magic users with this problem? My roommate Cassandra had very similar issues to yours which turned out to be a kind of spasm of the psychic floor muscles. she learned some exercises and drew some protective symbols, and now she’s a legit esper

ten minutes with your local witch or wizard could possibly get you all set
