I was thinking today of post I made not long ago about why do we feel we need to get sick to take a day off.. well on the weekend I was in emerg for a asthma attack.. nothing to severe so not to worry.. however, yesterday was sick with sinuses, off and on fever hot and cold coughing etc.. yupe you guessed it I went into work and worked through the day anyway..My thought on that was it would look bad to call them 1/2 hr before started to say was not coming. so I suffered and pushed through the day.. why? let be honest disapproval and I need the money..
I when I got home from work I did take care of myself.. So I took my own advise this morning and called in sick and not going to work. I should have really taken the day off yesterday to but live and learn.. I am only human and have human frailties as we all do.. however forgive myself will be gentle on myself and see what tomorrow brings.
