I've missed 489 days of work because Gaz is my boss 3 2.88%

I've missed a half day - went to the doctor and was told I had bronchitis. Laid around for about 3 hours, then worked from home the rest of the day.

I wouldn't say I missed it.

Nicely done. A lot of folks in the same boat as you according to the early poll results.

I missed 3 days for emergency gallbladder surgery. I probably missed 12 other days. So I'll say roughly 15. I have lots of issues with a couple of auto-immune diseases and with the meds I take for them. I also have a lot of doctor appointments which take me away from work too. I will always be above average due to the autoimmune diseases.

I have missed all of the days

Although I was a dumbass and went to work for a week straight with chicken pox about 3 years ago. Thought they were oak mite bites. :-)

One.

I will go to work with normal colds all the time. The day I have the shits is an automatic call in sick day.
[Reply]

I am a dumbass. I would feel guilty calling in sick when I am not sick. I did take 40 hours of family sick time when my father was sick just before he passed away.

Other than those 40 Hours of Family sick I have used a total of about 5 sick days in 33 years.

So you can give the cold to your coworkers and cause your company to suffer more people out?
[Reply]

None. If I miss work and it's not for vacation it's because I'm dead. I don't believe in sick days.
[Reply]

My guess would be most places of business have at least one sick(if we're including colds)employee at work almost everyday.

Starting this New Years Day, I had the worst case of Flu I have ever had in my life. It literally shut me down for over a week. I had no strength, a massive head ache and a high fever. I just laid in bed the whole time. It absolutely sucked. Went to the Dr and they said take ibuprofen and Tylenol every 4-6 hours - there’s nothing we can do for you.

Before that, I had not missed any time from work in the last 3 years.
