Re: QOTD 12/18
a few weeks ago. i had sinusits and was blowing my nose every 5 minutes and had really bad congestion. since i worked as a receptionist i figured i'd stay home.
It was in May. My mom and I planned a sick day together. We were just going to lay around, wedding plan a little and spend time together. She had a doctor's appointment in NJ and I always take her, but it was after work hours. We went together anyway.
It blew up in my face. I woke up a bunch of times the night before with my throat bothering me and woke up in the morning with a weak voice. It got progressively worse throughout the day. By 5:00 I had no voice at all. I felt fine though.
I'm a teacher, so having a voice is very necessary. I had to call in sick the next day, which was a Friday. I felt bad, it looked like I took a 4 day weekend since I was fine when I left work on Wednesday. A friend from work called the first day to see if I was ok and I couldn't talk. When I called out the next day, I sent her a text and asked her to tell our principal that I had no voice.
It took like a week for my voice to fully come back. Lesson learned: Don't plan a sick day.
I know I'm a day late on this, but I keep forgetting to check the nest!
DH stayed home last week because of a really bad cold. He has really bad allergies so a cold will put him right out. I haven't stayed home since probably may. I can't really afford to because I am one of three workers, so I must feel horrible if I am going to call in.
I got laid off so I have as many sick days as I want LOL ok not really funny...
in the 14 years DH has worked for the company he works for he has taken 2 sick days... (and those were to spend with me when we first started dating)... even sick he goes in...
He runs his dept alone.. .so he doesn't have to worry about making other people sick.. he just loads up on dayquil and off he goes... he is so dedicated!
