JUST WONDERIN......

How oftern do you "call in sick"?

AND....how many of those times are you truly, seirously, down-and-out sick?
Do you take a day just when you cannot stand your co-workers for one more dibilitating moment? Or only when you are straight up about to die of scarlette fever....if in fact, it even still exists?

I really don't think people need to take as many sick days as they do....normally.
Not saying I haven't called in sick when I've been pool side Palm Springs...not saying that at all...(DER)

Here's my theory....when you're self-employed, you get your ass to work...because it's your money, your business....your life.

When you work for someone else, it's not such a big deal, because the buckage isn't coming directly out of your pocket for a day missed.

Ya dig?

.....But then, if you're working for someone else, chances are....and not always, I understand....but GENERALLY, chances are that you aren't following your heart's desir. Your passion....or calling or whatever.

Chances are, you're just goofing around on myspace all day anyway....and you can do that from home. Or looking for new jobs or applying for new schools or filling out on-line quizzes and updating fantasy football.

Chances are.

You're just working to pay the bills.

Generally.

If you didn't get paid, you prob wouldn't be just dyyyying to go to work and would do it anyway...now some of you would...it's true...but most...Negative.

So anyway, just curious as to how often everyone calls in sick when they're not, and how you all (or y'all in the South) feel about it when you do.

If anyone wants to meet in Vegas tomorrow for lunch, I'm calling in sick.
