Yeah, I am the first person to ever do this yeah? I feel so ashamed now, must try and get in for nothing on Christmas day for no pay to repent my intended sin!
If you are sick then phone in as sick... if you are just a f*****g chancer then why chance your arm posting this on here ? Ask for AL if you've got days sitting... why should the rest of us have to cover your workload and pay for you having a day off just because you fancy one ? ? ?

A lot of the time we get treated like s**t by RM but I have to agree with the sentiment directly above.

Going sick for one day is such a waste. Just go in on 27th and then when you go back in new year have a week of sick, 1 day is such a waste

people get hassle from managers when being of sick, part of that is to do with people like you who are not sick, people complain about managers not sticking to the rules, we how can we expect them to stick to the rules if people like you are abusing them as well, if you go off sick i seriously hope you get caught
