The dashboard card was too easy to scroll past, so this is a real overlay: once
per browser session, on every page that loads common.js, dismissed with the X,
Escape or the backdrop.
It leads with the mechanic rather than the promotion, because the ask was to
remind people what the site is about: the ad spend in your line pays you, in the
same transaction. Five Dollar Friday rides underneath as the reason to act, and
the copy is driven by the live /api/friday, so it reads "tomorrow", "today" or
nothing at all without anyone editing text on a Friday morning.
Not shown on /join or /admin: an overlay in the middle of signing up costs
sign-ups, and staff do not need reminding what the product is.
QA: the overlay appears after an async fetch, so hiding it at load time missed
it and every click in the harness timed out. The harness now pre-sets the same
sessionStorage flag a real dismissal uses, before page scripts run. Green again,
0 bugs.
