I still live with mom because I'm in training.
I remember that when I was younger and not working, my mom had the attitude that a sick person should lay down and rest. Now that I'm hit with the flu, her first concern was that I assure her that I'll go to work tomorrow, and that I take as much medication as possible so I can push through.
Is this the reality of a worker? Filling yourself up with painkillers instead of recovering normally? Holy shit.
