You fancied a day off? Might get you the sack mind....
The flu is going round here at the moment - I work in London.....that could get you AT LEAST tomorrow and Friday off if not more? Also self certified for a week....
I was off Monday and Tuesday and I went back to work today. As soon as I walked in I regretted it. The girl I left to do my work while I was away overode a load of template spreadsheets on a shared drive and and they were lost. Took me ages to sort them out and do all my work as well.
