I never call in sick, I just tell em I won't be in
Exactly. These people arent your parents. :pachaha:
I just call or text the owner and say "I'm not gonna make it in today." :dame:
He may ask "What you sick or something?" and I just say "Nah, Im just not coming." "Oh okay. You using a day?"..."Uhh, what am I at for the year, 3? 4?...Nah. I'll take the hit. See you tomorrow."

Only once this year and i was actually sick and had a doctor's excuse so i guess you can say none.


This thread just reminded me that i got 14 vacation days left:mjgrin:
When you get that email saying use your vacation time by the end of the year so you take like 2 weeks off :blessed:

At my job salary people don't need to call in if they are sick. But our bosses will be on our asses to make sure we are doing it at home :francis:

I've worked in several sectors and my etiquette has always been the same. Your position in the company you work for will dictate your ability to do certain things. I rarely took days off in the past but recently, I've taken a lot of days.Now some jobs are just more difficult to take days because everything very well may stop for the office/dept if you arent there but if I need the day, for whatever reason, I'm taking the day. If they want to start shyt then their paperwork better be in order to do so.That aside, I never give them information because you arent required to do so. If they ask me things they shoudlnt, I let them feel the tension that perhaps, they stepped over the line in asking.

I try very hard not to call out more than five times during the school year. My principal is really easygoing about it if I take a day to go on vacation early :lolbron:

Two years ago I had to use up all my days :francis: so I'm trying to build it back up.

I agree with you to an extent I think culture of a company has alot to do with it though.
