Love how this person’s advice casually includes “and don’t do any fun and/or relaxing activities as you build a new skill set”

My advice for giving an excuse for why you won’t be coming in…DON’T

If they ask why…. You can respond, “because I’m not. Thank you, have a good day.” CLICK If you’re ill mentally or physically while on the job and need to go home you can say…. “I can’t finish the rest of the day and I have to leave.” When they try to guilt you because they’re under staffed or busy, remember that’s not your problem. Your health is. If you don’t give an excuse/reason they can’t gaslight you if you say I’ll talk to you tomorrow about this matter and leave. If you can get someone to cover your shift then that’s helpful but if you can’t don’t hold that guilt ok. Even when billy bob says he works while he’s sick. Your coworkers will be fine tomorrow even if they choose to feel any other way.

Called in sick to work-asked if I had a PC at home…

So I called in sick to work today because…well I’m sick. I work in an office and my boss responded with are you setup to work from home? Which I am not. So I responded with no. He then asked if I had a PC and if not they would make arrangements for the future. To which I responded with “if arrangements could be made that it would be great”. I have a laptop at home but I don’t feel comfortable using it for work considering it’s my personal computer and feel like if they want me to work from home let alone work from home on a sick day then I should be supplied a work computer. Am I wrong for thinking this?
