So can non-disabled people stop doing that thing where they act like itβs morally righteous to force yourself to work while youβre sick and assume taking sick days automatically equates to laziness. Any time now. Thatβd be great
The leader of the scout group I help out at approached me out of hours while I was walking to work to tell me that people have been talking behind my back because I missed more sessions than I attended this term (on account of having Covid twice) and was like βWe all show up when weβre sick because we take responsibilityβ and I felt really shitty and guilty and cried the whole workday then I got home and told my mum and she was like βSo they want you to throw up on the kids? Thatβs dodgy. They donβt even pay you. Stop goingβ and a wave of serenity hit me like a bus
