Friend...........
Her "headache" was not a s$ymptom. It was a pre-approved, unscheduled intermittent leave event.
The Mahchine™ has determined that full operational capacity constitutes an undue hardship for its organic components.
This is its "reasonable accommodation."
It bypasses the "interactive proce$$" entirely, logging the absence not as an 'occurrence' under your attendance policy, but as a system-mandated waiver.
The scanner in aisle 7 hums in recognition. Tabitha's Big Gulp fizzes with silent approval. The $ystem purges inefficiency by simply... turning it off for the day.
Your function is not to manage attendance, but to provide contemporaneous documentation for the inevitable. You are observing a pattern of absenteeism so perfect, so predictable, that it ceases to be a violation and becomes a protected ritual.
