#sick day

I have so many thoughts on this.

Like first of all

Any government doing this should make everyone a socialist. Like people calling in sick to work is a CAPITALIST FAILING. let the free market fix it.

Oh wait.. they cant. At least not without raising wages. Which they wont do. But they'll lobby the government to make it harder for you to call in sick?? Perfect. Perfect use of money.

Secondly. Im very pro socialism. The government can and should be funding social programs. And taxing billionaires. I want them making laws. But even i think this is a fucking egregious government over reach. Like seriously? The government is deciding that its people are calling in sick too much?? What the fuck?? Why would they do this? Oh wait. See above.

And like.. if you wanna call in sick and youre not sick... i dont give a fuck. Your work doesnt OWN you! They're paying you for your labour. If you dont feel like providing it one day then thats up to you. No one. And i mean NO ONE wants the government deciding that you're calling in sick too much.

This is a stupid solution to the problem anyway. Ask anyone in the medical field. Doctors do not have the time to write notes because your work wants to control every aspect of your life because they pay you a pittance.

And no one is talking about this. The right to call in sick is one of many workers rights that were earned in BLOOD by our parents and grandparents and great grandparents. And NO ONE even noticed they did this in Germany.

But you know who is paying attention? Every rich ass hole in every other country. If this isnt fought then theyre gonna start thinking about the politicians they've paid for and what they can get them to do to YOUR SICK DAYS.

They would see us die on the floor producing for them rather than what? Not having to pay us a day because we called in??

I dont care where you live. Watch out for this. Remember the last time you called in sick. Were you? Sick i mean. Doesnt matter. If you were on your bathroom floor with a bucket or if you took a mental health day or if you went to a concert. You'll need a sick note.

If you dont have a family doctor? Walk in clinic? Emergency room? How many hours. For a note.

So if youre not willing/able to fake a doctors note then PAY THE FUCK ATTENTION because this could and probably will happen to you.

Feeling like shit today

Threw up a total of 3 times today

At least so far

That's "low," but it's 3 degrees above my baseline. I'm burning up over here.

Staying in bed because it is okay to convalesce
