Oh, I see the logic, I just find it appalling.
I am amazed that the "average guy" has no qualms calling in sick when he's not. Justify it anyway you want, but the bottom line is it's lying to your employer. And we ALL pay the price for that.
I'm done with this topic...again. I'd like to think most commuters are honest, but frankly, you are the only one to admit to NOT abusing sick leave. For that, I applaud your high character.
But I'm embarrassed to be associated with a group in which most commuters on this board apparently have such low integrity.
