are managers quailifed doctors ?. they have no right to harass you at home
when being ill put in a formal dissagreement against your manager.
when your manager goes sick every day one postman/postwomen should ring them
and ask how he is.

This is part of their "contact strategy". They can ask you in, if you aren't well enough - don't go.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

Following day over here, you get the special asking you in for an interview on the day you phone in :hmmmm I thought that was standard practice (or maybe that just over here).
