    No, sickness is not a choice, but staying at home to recover IS a choice.

    Just came in to work, projectile vomited everywhere then passed out on the floor. Bonus if you could pull off a seizure.

      It’s only professional ethics to bring whatever bug you have and share it with colleagues.

      Sharing is caring.

        Which also is NOT a worry in Europe. In some countries the worst that can happen if you ask for an ambulance that was completely a waste of time is getting fined about 30 euros. Worst outcome I had from visiting A&E was to have to pay for the prescribed antibiotics.
