Re: getting called into work when sick
I called in sick one day with the runs, nausea, etc. My boss had an important project and there were a few other people out sick too, so she begged me to come in. After some serious begging, I finally broke down and came in, but I hate being anywhere when I have the runs, and you can understand why.
Anyway, I staggered through the day, making the occasional panicked sprint to the restroom, and finally started feeling a little better around 3:30 or so. The project got finished about a half hour later, and she asked me if I wanted to go home. I said no, it was only an hour left so I would stick it out since I was already here. So she wrote me up for coming in! Said if I were sick, I wouldn't have come in in the first place no matter how much she begged me. That's the thanks you get, eh?
Gotta be careful about doing evil people favors.
