Today, I woke up after taking the new sleeping pills I was prescribed for my insomnia. I slept for 12 hours and had 5 missed calls from my boss. FML

Explain things to your boss. You can't really be held accountable for this.

At least it wasn't 5 missed calls from your mom. That shit's terrifying.

Yep drugging the boss seems like it's the best possible, most reasonable solution.

Yup, bosses are usually people too. I once slept through my alarm and missed my entire shift at work (early-morning shift). Everything was fine once I explained it to my boss and said that I'd set two alarms in the future.

Just tell the boss you're well rested and now an even better worker

Ask for a little mercy and adjust your schedule as needed. You struggle to sleep. I'm guessing you didn't expect the medication to work that well. Take it earlier, and soon things will be back to normal.

On the bright side, at least you know the medicine works.

Yikes! I had the same problem with some antihistamines after an allergic reaction.... I hope your boss is as understanding as mine

OP wouldn't be alive to make this FML if their mother made the calls

Should be all good if you explain things to your boss...as long as he's not an asshole. And you better have a productive week and definitely can't complain about being tired!

I hope you have a kind boss who understands medication doesn't always work the way it's supposed to
