Have you ever went to work with an injury and didn’t tell anyone about it and just worked through it?

I rolled my ankle missing a step yesterday and it didn’t hurt at first but when I woke up this morning it took some time getting out of bed and getting ready. I’m gonna take the elevators today lol

When I had my son, his carrier gave me wrist inflammations every few months because of the way I had to put him in the back of the car, not ergonomic and the full weight always went to that 1 wrist.
After a while I felt like nobody would believe it anymore if I still complained about it 😅 I never skipped work because of it, but sometimes I had to ask a colleague to change the water bottle of the dispenser in the office and they always rolled their eyes as if I was pretending to be hurt :/

All the time. I hardly tell anyone at work about any problem I have health or otherwise.... I just work through it.

Oh shit yeah. Only it was incredibly obvious in my case, as I slipped on the ice in front of everyone and my ankle instantaneously swole up. Take care of your feet, lil lady! Take some time off to recover if you have to

And then pretended like you did it at work so you could collect workers compensation?
