TEKsystems recruiter called me to say that 3 sick days over 3 months is too much and the company will fire me if I take another one.

I'm a Full Time college student and a Full Time Help Desk Agent. It's doable but there are a certain days where I just simply can't drive because of how exhausted I am. Over the course of 3 months I've had to take 3 sick days just to recoup properly. Today while I was sleeping for my night shift job my TEKsystems recruiter called me (While I was sleeping, the recruiter KNOWS this) to tell me if I take even a single more sick day that my company will let me go. ??? I'm not fucking dying for 16/hr. Fucking $16 won't buy jack shit either anymore. I work 40 hours a week and sometimes even nearly 50 to do work related-business off my computer, or even stay on the line to help deal an issue with an End User. If they're getting this pissy over 3 entire days, then…

If they're getting this pissy over 3 entire days, then I really don't want to see what they have to say when I need an entire week off for exams lmao.
