Antiwork

Even when you’re really sick you have to work.

Honestly, wtf is up with that? I work at a facility that does substance testing and their policy is that the only way you can leave early is if you have fever of 102 or higher. I've got a fever of 100 and they said that the clients come first (hell they'll be sent in even with a damn stomach bug) and I have to stay. I've been sneezing, coughing, having shortness of breath and all that fun stuff and they deem that okay to stay. Yet anytime the supervisors get a small cold w/o a fever, they can call off or leave early to go home. I've been wearing a mask all day to “protect the rest of the staff. If I didn't need the paycheck that bad I would've told them my health is more important than those who can test any other day of the week.
