Do you guys get a benefit or something for not using a "sick day"? We don't have "sick days" to take, you just take off whenever for however long you want, for any reason.

the level of concern that some of you guys have about getting sick from a co-worker with a runny nose and low grade fever makes me think that your job is to make out w/ your co-workers for eight hours every day and then go home.


All it takes is touching the same thing someone else touched. The worst are those who go to work and proceed to vomit. That is a killable offense.
IIRC, you're contagious for three days after you're "OVER IT".  In other words, three days after the fever breaks. 
Personally, I really hate those rough ridin' co-workers that come in sick; and then the rest of the ppl in the office would get sick from it.  When I first started working at my present place of employment, they had a $100 bonus for not missing any work days for a year.  Sometimes the office looks like a sick morgue; so I'm glad the company wised up and discontinued this practice.

you iirc wrong. also jfc you dorks. guess what? there are sick people at movie theaters that saw the matinee when you are going to the 730pm. i mean, the amount of crap that you touch in a weekly basis that had sick people touch six hours or ten or whatever before you and still can actively get you sick (technically) if you then immediately start sucking on your fingers or whatever is absurd. why are you guys fixated with a sick person at work? never mind. i already know. it's because you want to take sick days and telling yourselves it's for the common good makes you feel better.

newsflash dinkledorks, you're kind of lazy and pathetic and lying to the people that are paying you money to do the job that they just hired you for is kind of sad. also, if you kick so much ass that you can be like "hey i'm taking a sick day to go to opening day at the kauff" then hey it's prob ok that you do it. if you have to say "hey i'm taking a sick day cause i'm sick" and then you go to opening day at the kauff...guess what? get a life and a new job you dingdong.
Yea, go ahead and use that one.  Oh, and by the way, you're fired goof-off.   :whistle1:

thought about taking a sick day today to just chill on the couch and watch hoops, but decided to just go to work and watch hoops at my desk.

You know what's good on a sick day? Quiznos and a workaholics marathon. :gocho:

Are you sick? I think there is a thread for that. This is the thread for abusing sick days and getting fired.

You went to the doctor because you didn't feel well in the morning?

Used two sick days this week because of Laryngitis. Lit'rally could not produce any audible words from my voice box, which is kind of important in this line of work. Got a lot done at home. Don't feel bad. Was great. :cool:

I used an awesome sick day last Tuesday. Strategy is to only do them on a random day. Fridays and Mondays are a no go. I really Zach Morrised that day up.
