[QUOTE="Lil, post: 647518, member: 17309"] I can't say I've never called in just because I was exhausted or upset or just kind of icky feeling and didn't want to go, but I've worked this job for over 20 years, I'm salaried, I work overtime for free if I get behind, and I try really hard to not inconvenience my co-workers by my absence. If I miss work, most of work is not done by others, but is still there when I get back. If I were paid by the hour and didn't have paid sick leave and vacation, I'd work if I were practically on my deathbed! As it is, I had a cardiac cath a few years ago following a weekend in the hospital after a abnormal stress test. I'm laying on the table, the doctor has the thingy up my artery, says, "Everything looks good! You don't have any blockage at all." My response was, "So can I go back to work?" (I couldn't, of course, positive or negative, I still had a hole in my artery.) [/QUOTE]
