So our boss stops by each location once a month right? And my coworker has been absent alot and the last couple of times he has been while the boss has been down. Well it's medical reasons so I really don't want to say why to him as it's not my business to say, I would expect the same respect from my coworkers. My boss pressured me to say something and I kept telling him my reason as to why (note, he has my coworker's number and could easily call and ask what's up).
