I can't remember taking a sick day ever. Once when I was 17 I called in sick and they demanded that I go to work anyway. So I did and spent my shift throwing up at work. So my only ever sick day didn't even happen. So, if I remember correctly, I am now on 23 years of continuous work, no sick days.

This thread title just lends itself to the response being "your mom"

lol, in 23 years, you've never chucked a sickie?

If you never take a sick day because you're not ill then that's cool. If you go to work sick and spread germs around your office then that is not cool. Sick people should stay away from me at work! I'll normally take a sick day, but still do a bit of work at home since I'm normally just about well enough to take my laptop into bed with me.

I don't want to take germs home. I have other people that I'm looking out for at home. -

Nope, not since I was 17, and I did that one at work. My wife's gone much longer.

I've spent most of my career working from home. So taking a sick day is not the same as staying home sick. One of the reasons that companies like work from home employees or flexible work from home options is because people don't have to take sick days just to keep from spreading things. So I've gotten sick and needed to stay away from people, but have never gotten sick and needed to not work.

I don't want to take germs home. I have other people that I'm looking out for at home.Except for an eleven month window last year, I've had the ability, and the duty, to work from home if sick continuously since 2006. Before that only time I lacked that option I worked alone and only three days a week in an office, so opportunities to get sick there were smallish. Before that the last time that I needed to appear in an office was a stint in 2000 - 2001.
