Hi Mark - It's Kyan. Trey's in hospital, he won't be at work today. Sorry to text you so early.

No, it's fine, mate. Shit, is he okay?

[intothegroove]

He's having his appendix out. He wasn't feeling well all weekend. He just got much worse overnight.

[aussielawyer]

Oh, crap. Poor kid. Has he had the surgery?

[intothegroove]

He's having it now. He's been feeling sick since Saturday afternoon, so it burst by the time they examined him at the ER. He'll be off work for about 3 weeks. He was worrying about that.

[aussielawyer]

Fuck, no. You tell him not to worry. I'm not going to up and give his job to anyone else. He'll probably be in for a few days, I'll drop in and have a chat with him.

Thanks, Mark. He doesn't want to fuck up the opportunities you've given him. He probably would've tried to show up with a burst appendix if I didn't intervene.

Hey, if anyone knows about people getting ill and needing time to recover, it's me. I've got a sick kid, remember? I want to offer him a job once he passes the Bar, I'm not going to put the boot in because his appendix burst.

[intothegroove]

You want to offer him a job? Seriously? There is nothing more in this world he would want than a permanent job with you.
