I got a sore throat, headache, stuffed up nose etc but I have to go to work-why?
because in the 21st century I work for a company that takes away your accrued vacation time if you call in sick !!
call in sick today = I lose 8 hours !

GRrrrrrrrrrrrrr

NO sympathy please- I know-I took the job but still
not the best way to treat people who will go to work when healthy but when sick Or contagious stay home !

If you work where I do (and I cant name the place for Obvious reasons) and If give you the hee bee gee bees
Im sorry -but its not me its the company policy !

After that, enjoy your time off.lol

That is really bad.....but you must remember to take care of number one without stepping on two...because you are just going to get worse...then you will need more time to recoup.......they say it all the time....if you don't feel well.......it's going to show at work so you will do no justice to you or anyone around you. I know times are hard and I commend you for doing so....BUT IS IT WORTH YOUR HEALTH...from a bad cold comes bronchitis and from that comes neumonia.........well, drink a lot of teas with lemon and honey and I pray you feel better........what about if you get a doctor's note?

I worked in the E.R. for 5 years & you are right...you should be home in bed getting well. too bad money is more important to some employers.
hope you feel better soon.
