Default Re: getting called into work when sick

It's unlikely that you will get fired for this, depending on the company. Washington is an "emplyment at will" state, but has an "Implied Contract" excemtion, and a termination could be legally challenged if the firm or your boss implyed in any way that calling out sick was acceptable, and not grounds for termination. If it's a big company, I wouldn't worry about it, but a small firm might not care.
