Who is going to believe that you are sick...anyone calling in sick today is going to look suspision as hell. I am bruitally tired from a 14km hike yesturday, but still working today, blows but such is life. Could have taken today off if it wasn't for us being short staffed at the moment

Haha, well cold comfort to those who are working, be happy that you have a job to go to?

Gotta love self employed on these kinda weekends. I worked both yest and today. No traffic with all the campgrounds packed and sold out and crappy weather (so far), I'll take a 4 day'er and go next weekend when it's much quieter!

Those so called sick days - possibly grounds for dismissal, no? Remember fighting many a grievance at my last employer for employees who were terminated for "sick" days - companies are not very tolerable of such behaviours and now that I own my own company, I can say that as an employer that I am also not very tolerant of suspicious "sick" days. Remember, what goes goes around comes around - employers tend to have good memories and long ones too and I do remember instances at my last employer whereas they had managers staking out suspect employees - abuse the rules and it could come back to bite ya in the butt.

In response to the poster that asked what you could be doing instead of working today.... golfing. I am golfing at 6:30pm, but I definitely would have done two rounds today if I didn't work.

That's the beauty of my job, apparently if you call in sick the day before or after a stat you don't get paid for the stat.
I've never risked it to find out, and I'm not gonna.
It was busy as fuck at my job though, I'll tell ya that.
