Stay at home?

[Im a BusyBee]

Well ive had a cold all week (was at my worst over bank hol weekend) but gone to work everyday, ive got up today and although i am much better feel i really cant be bothered to go in, should i make an effort and go?? Who stays home when not feeling well and who keeps going for it?? What gets me is when guys are under the weather they put their feet up and get waited on at home whereas when i get in from work i still have chores to do - although they have slipped behind this week.

stay @ home and relax if your ill then u deserve to have a day of total relaxation and spend the day oh here.

Make a cup of tea, put your jama's on and ring into work saying you stil don't feel well but may be in at lunch time. If, by 11ish, you want to go in you can, if you don't then you can ring back and say that you won't be in after all.

That's what I would do!

Generally, I work through sickness, or will do some from home, but tell myself that I need time to recouperate even if I am feeling better!! Saying that I don't really get ill very often, sounds the same as you i.e. coughs and colds, so I have never had to feel bad about pulling a sickie anyway!

Enjoy Jeremy Kyle, and make the most of trashy TV ;-)

stay at home. I've done the keeping going thing and your colleagues don't thank you for it when they all come down with it. Besides, it's Friday. Have a nice relaxed brekkie and lounge about til you fell like doing a bit of housework-and if you don't feel like it watch films instead! Have a good weekend :o)

you might as well go in its the last day of the week, why throw away a days pay when you have nothing special planned to do. I can't be bothered either, but it is just one more day....come on! we will do the chores tomorrow..Ehh!

If you have had a cold, why did you go to work, why spread it around. You may be a hero in your eyes but your workmates will be p!ssed off when they all come down with a cold.

Thanks - made me feel better about stayin at home! As for stayin on here, i find the time goes so quickly on here and believe it or not i have learnt alot from this site, so prob stay around awhile. can you tell me how i put the ratings against your answers as ive never done that before? Also is it possible to view profiles of others? Just looked out the window and its a real miserable wet day so prob best off indoors n e way.
Take care x

RATTER15 i dont think thats the case - we have been short staffed this week for various reasons out of our control and as i was the only person able to do wages i dont think my colleagues would agree with you when they didnt have money in their bank!
