    I would die of embarrassment if someone pitied me while picking up otc medicine. Like there’s the “ope you look rough, good luck” level, but anymore and it’s just uncomfortable. All I want my employer to say when I’m sick is “do you want to work from home”

      I’m glad my employer said, “you’ve been working hard. I comped you a day so you can rest and recover.”, the last time I wasnt feeling well (allergies got the best of me and I was a mess). Even though I’ve accrued nearly 2-weeks of sick time at this point.

      I’m fortunate that I don’t work for a shitty company anymore.
