I've felt horrible for the past two days (I have my period. Always really bad). Luckily I was off yesterday, but today I have work.

I'm debating whether or not I should call in sick. I've worked there for almost two years and have called out three times (twice because I had no voice and couldn't speak. A big part of my job). That's compared to the other girls who call out at least once a month.

I'm always afraid to call out because I think things will be out of control if I'm not there and then everyone will blame it on me. I always feel like I'm responsible for keeping everything together and under control.

By the way, I do not have another day off until next week. I don't get weekends off.

It's not my responsibility to take care of everything. It's just that no one else does their job, so I'm always doing everything.

If you feel that bad, then call out. You aren't going to do anybody any good if you go in feeling like heck. Take the day off, stay in bed or curl up on the couch and watch a good movie. Have a bowl of soup and get some rest. Tomorrow you will feel better and can return to the grindstone.

There's no point going to work if you're feeling completely horrible. Unfortunately a lot of women suffer like this around their time of the month - and doctors know about this problem only too well. Just stay at home, take a nice hot bath, put your feet up and relax. If the other girls can get away with it, so can you. ;-)

If you feel really horrible, you're not going to work as well anyway. If the whole place hasn't come crashing down the last few times you were out, it's probably fine. Don't make a habit of it, but I'd sit this one out and stay home.

Yes, do it.. why should you have to control all the time? Obviously your coworkers find the time to call in, so why don't you? Call in and enjoy the rest of your day off!

Call in sick. The office survived before you got there; the office will survive one day without you. Your health is more important
