[quote=Anonymous]My last job was super into "face time" and the expectation was that you came in even if you were sick. (This is why I left - otherwise it would have been a good job but I had to move on as kids got older and I needed more flexibility). Luckily, I rarely got sick so I when I did stay home it was usually stomach-bug related. I always did say, "I have either a stomach bug or food poisoning so can't come in" - I think it is universally accepted that a) people don't want to be near you and b) you really can't be on the metro on in the office if you are running to the bathroom. The head of my department had no problem announcing she was vomiting but coming in as soon as possible. So, so super annoying. Now I'm in a place that allows telecommuting even when you are not sick! Amazing! [/quote]
