And probably still contagious. I personally hate it when people do this but I wonder if Im being judged at work (been working from home, but I honestly cant do much). I also really dont want to give somebody whatever I have this close to Christmas.

Rude, yeah.

If you feel sick and know youre contagious, stay the fuck home and keep that shit to yourself.

i don't really care, for every sick person at work there's 10 on the bus and 100 at the mall, you know what I mean? I only get 5 sick days in a year so i'm not wasting them on a common cold.

I only care when I worked in the food industry. What I'd do then though is call the manager tell them my symptoms and what I thought I had and told them to make the decision on if I come in or not and id work in a reminder that I worked with food to get my point across on why I shouldn't.

Yes and no. Yes because you can get others sick but no because missing even 1 days pay can be a big hurt on a lot of people financially.

I go in sick but if I'm throwing up and really sick I stay home.

Naw just suck it up and go to work. And tell other people to suck it up if they get sick. Being sick isnt a huge deal unless it's the flu or something. Most adults work through being sick

Your manager would actually to stay home? When I worked in restaurants they told me just be sure I wash my hands a lot.

2 out of the 3 times I pulled that, they told me to stay home. Third time someone else had also called off and they couldn't handle another. (Place was a busy location)

Kinda depends your job. I assume or at least hope you don't work around food.

Our entire plant just go wiped out because someone was sick and came to work. Don't do that.

I have co-workers that show up clearly sick, hacking and sneezing. And when I comment that they should go home, they usually respond with no, that wouldnt be fair to you and the others to pass along my work.

Like... I get where youre coming from, and your heart is in the right place. But Id rather have 1-2 slightly days of tougher workloads than 4+ days of feeling bad 24/7, should I catch what you have.

I'll probably do this again. I've just done it the past few days and feel like I'm taking advantage of the system.

I'm also treating it differently because my symptoms involve me sneezing, coughing and sweating a lot. So I've got at least three different avenues for the disease to spread. I've gone through 6 roll of toilet paper blowing my nose.

I asked a bunch of coworkers how they felt about this. All of them said they'd rather someone come in to work sick then have extra work to do. You guys complaining are just sissies who get man colds

I can work from home when I am sick. Last year I broke my ankle and worked from home for 3 weeks.

Yes it's rude. But fuck them. I'm saving my sick time for days when I truly can't make it to work. I'm not gonna use my sick time on days where I just don't feel good but can still work and not have it when I really need it.

If youre sick you should stay home.

It gets complicated because some employers have to deal with employees that have attendance problems so they can be assholes about it.

But really if you are sick it is best to stay home and not spread the illness.

I would, but only because of my job. If I had a different job, maybe not. We also have those mask here. So, we could potentially keep it from spreading...
