How often do you call in sick from work when you're not really sick?

I have been working for almost 42 years without a break and have never done it once.

@MrAverage1965 you're crazy

I might be but then I did take 11 months off sick one and was in full pay for most of it, what goes around comes around.

I will do it when I absolutely feel the need to be off. But it's not very often at all...I have a very good and reliable work ethic.

Once in awhile I call it a mental health day.
I've only ever called into work twice and I wasn't sick either time. The first time I got drunk with a friend and we decided to drive to California. The second time I had just broken up with the love of my life and needed a day to get myself together.

I don't.

I call in when I'm sick.

Shoot.

Sometimes my boss makes me work even when I'm sick.

Ain't that some $#!+ ?

Never because I'm an honest person and can't lie. I juat can't. Also, if I ever wanna just not work for a day or so, I usually pick something to do on a specific date and then I request off for that said day. At least it's a good reason to have off. Something to do, ya know? So I guess it depends on the person.

@sighmeupforthat Sucks when it's like that. Bosses get sick too.

We’re short staffed. Can’t do that. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Never, since I'm always sick and I only opt out of work when it's much worse than usual.

I called out last week. I kinda hate my job
😊 The best time to find a new job, one that you would like, is while you still have one.@SW-User

I have done it before, but it's not very often at all.
