My godmother is away with the fairies and she's really vulnerable
The doctor is already getting with the programme and trying to make out she is ok during appointments. I swear she's in league with the government. Before we know it they'll be trying to make her work.
Whereas there are other people who have made a total career and lifestyle out of being 'too sick to work' and I bet they keep getting away with it.
These cuts will not affect the right people. Honest people are not crafty enough.

Yesterday my optician told me at lunch time to go to the eye hospital at 5.30pm
I'd already told the office I was expecting to be out all afternoon, but when I was told the appointment was at 5.30pm, I thought "woohoo I'm totally going home". However, as I walked past the road that leads to my office I got a massive guilt on and went back to work. I hate myself.

An hour or so, I'd be ok with skipping
But a whole afternoon? That's too much.

You're both mental, blag as much time off as you can and sit around the house in your pants smoking cigars.

I hate people that bunk off work excessively
I'll allow one 'sick' day a year, but one employee managed to rack up a month's worth of sick and compassionate leave in 6 months, without any of the sick leave being longer than 2 day stints.

that was it, I couldn't do it.
I was already really pissed off that the office manager had gone home because her baby had a cold, so it meant the other secretary was by herself so I couldn't in good conscience sit at home all afternoon.

I've had 2 days off sick this year, but some people take at least one day a month off, it drives me crazy.

God same here
I've had *quickly checks* 3 days off sick, but that includes the day I was sent home by my boss.
( Labia Majora You keep on talking but it makes no sense at all, Wed 20 Oct 2010, 14:05, Reply)

I was sent home on the first day of the migraines because they caught me typing with my eyes closed
It was the first day back after my holiday so I couldn't have called in sick, they never would have believed me, even with my almost immaculate record.

Why?
They're having a right laugh at home playing Nintendo 64 and getting stone all day and you're sat like a numpty in work. They win. Who cares what anyone thinks.

well I care!
It's not a case of 'if you can't beat em, join em', I know I won't be rewarded for my lack of taking the piss, but that doesn't mean I want to start doing it.

What did the doctor tell you?
Are you ok? Will your eye recover?

I have to wear my dirty secretary glasses on Friday though :(

I read that is
"Woe is me, I have to wear something even more slutty now, just to tease the maximum amount of pricks I possibly can."

when i was about 18
and working in a pub in heaton moor, i spent my first salary on beautiful silver d&g glasses. they were £200 and i was so excited that i even wore them into work instead of my contact lenses.

and the men at the bar looked up. then down. then one said, "men'll never make passes at lasses in glasses."

even though the last thing anyone would want is a pass from a fat 50 year old stockport loser, it still sucked hard!

They're wrong
Glasses on girls can look hot! I don't just mean the slutty secretary look, the right pair of specs can really improve a girl.

I'm sorry. So you can't wear lenses anymore?

Not for a while, and when I do I can only wear them for a few hours.
I'm going to have to go and get myself some nice new glasses I think, to make it more bearable.
