Yeah. I know that nearly everyne I work with will ring-up work at-least once a month, usually on a Monday, and say they have the flu or need to attend a dead relatives funeral, etc, when they are just hungover from Sunday night. This one guy has killed off his entire family in the two months that hes been here. This annoys me
Even when I have a hangover I goto work - I prefer to do something active rather than vegetate indoors, it clears it up. But the way I see it: this means I'm missing out on extra (unofficial) holiday days that everyone else is taking! So I think I'm entitled to, say, ten extra (unofficial) holiday days (fake illness/fake funeral days) a year.
i.e., I'm planning on going to Amsterdam during a 'bout of flu' in January. The good thing about working for a large company, that employs around 200, is that its impossible to feel guilty about this kind of thing or take it seriously at all.
My granddad was right we'd all be fucked if there was ever another world war.
