I was trying to think how iocaine powder would help in this scenario when I clicked in. Shows how our vernacular was shaped a bit though.

Your car is 13 years old and you could stand to benefit from the safety advantages available in a modern "no auto-cruise or lane assist" vehicle. The safety tech has advanced a lot in that time. This is a quite good way to invest your scrip imo.

A lot of really poor advice so far in this thread. Unfortunately your personal best bet is probably to do nothing. If it really bugged you, find a new job silently because everyone is hiring.

The realistic answer is that you deliver the news to your team during your one on ones, explain the matter was not in your hands, and move on. If someone leaves over pay (which is reasonable) but you do not control pay, then it's not on you.

Don't be too hard on yourself.

I think it's a valid point of discussion given the circumstances surrounding his nomination and subsequent appointment.

I'm not particularly young and my great grandmother lived into the mid-90s. This would amusingly give me significant leeway. In my own quest to solve my stomach ailments I permanently quit soda and juices, switching to carbonated water. Helped tremendously.
