this is funny and reminds me that when you call in sick

just say you are calling in sick, don't give any reasons. Fuck them they don't need to know why

sometimes mental health days where you just chill and do shit you want to do is a perfectly good sick day

Mental health is health. Take the sick day.

Hah. Hah.

Our sick days / PTO were the same pool. Flu or family trip, you still only got "one week's worth of hours" off per year.

This was part time, but still insane.

I had that for two years at my current job. Full time as an engineer with that shit. One year I got a vacation, the next I got covid. These days I’ve got a bit more and we have separate sick time which is very nice

I've never had a boss EVER that pressed me for information on why I took off sick. That's completely inappropriate for them to ask.

Every single employer I had until I was past 30 pressed for reasons when I called in sick. Some required doctor's notes. Granted, I'm middle aged and lived in a shitty conservative town where employers constantly broke the law and violated employee rights.

Screw those employers. Whenever they send one of their employees in to me to get a note, I give them way more off than they’d normally take.

You got a cold? The first 5 days suck the most and you’re most contagious during those days, so have 5 days off work. Oh, you only wanted today off and were considering going back tomorrow if you were feeling better? Sucks for your boss, I guess. My medical opinion is based on the disease, not your employee’s self-assessment.

Say you're shitting your brains out and the only thing coming to work will accomplish is a line for the bathroom and possibly more people shitting their brains out
