I never do, I've usually been in jobs where calling in sick means my colleagues have to pick up the slack, and since my colleagues are also my friends I don't do that.
If it's all just waiting on your desk for you do fix the next day, then I guess it's not quite as bad. I used to call in sick at school but there I only had myself with it, I had to catch up the work done but I didn't affect the other students, didn't ask for extra explanations in class when I knew I had missed it calling in sick while I really wasn't.

No, but I probably should have. I'm feeling kind of sick, but went to work anyway because I knew it would be a really busy day at work and two people from my department are on vacation, so if I had called in sick one person would have had to handle all the work by herself and she's stressed enough as it is with just the two of us being at work. I can't wait to go home to bed though.

Haven't yet today. I still have 7 hours to think of an excuse. I probably won't though. I work with 3 doctors so I can't claim I'm sick or they'll want to treat me and it's a small town so they know I don't have a family emergency.

For one in all those motives you "could desire to" call in ill for your self, your co-workers, and the ordinary public frequently. in this state, in case you guard nutrients and characteristic nausea, a abdomen discomfort, or any style of a respiration challenge you're required to call in ill. on the different hand, maximum employers won't proceed to hire you in case you persevere with this suggestion. I even have genuinely became in my examine stand, vomited interior the waste basket whilst being suggested by utilising my supervisor (as adversarial to a shift supervisor or assistant), and then informed that i could desire to be feeling extra valuable so carry on. - No smash, no possibility to rinse my mouth, no persist with as much as see if i became into ok until eventually an hour later at my scheduled smash time, and easily no determination to deliver me domicile. Oh, we are actually not allowed fluids of any sort in our examine stands until eventually prescribed by utilising a well being care provider; and that doesn't assure any allowance for a washing room smash exterior of a scheduled smash. Welcome to the international of paintings. the extra valuable the activity, the extra allowances for issues like own ailment.

Are you kidding me?! Today's Friday--the partners' meeting--doughnut and bagel day! I look forward to this all week. When the doughnuts get here from Krispy Kreme, they're still warm... Make it all worthwhilte when I wake up thinking, "Oh God...do I REALLY have to go in today?" Then I realize it's Doughnut Day and that's motivation enough. :)
