Okay, I'm a bad person.

BOSS: I'm not feeling good today, I've had throat tickles since Sunday and I'm coughing and might go home early.
ME: I have cough suppressant right here. *hands him bottle of Buckley's with dextromethorphan*
BOSS: *walks into next room*
(insert Jeopardy theme here)
BOSS: *walks back into room* HOLY SHIT. THAT STUFF IS STRONG. HOOOOOOLY SHIT. WAUGH.


... on the bright side it's worked rather nicely for him?

You're hardly a bad person. How does anyone expect to know whether their cough medicine is working if it doesn't taste like a kick in the teeth?

(This is part of why I use Fisherman's Friends cough drops.)

I've found some cough medicine out there that don't try to make my taste buds revolt. Whether they work, well, hard to say due to various factors.

(Oh, so I'm not the only one?)

Horrible stuff that works

You gave him Buckley's without warning!

You are a bad person.

And I am grinning SO HARD imagining being able to do the same to my boss, I tell you what.
