I do agree though, most of the time, I call in well later in the day.
That makes sense.
In my scenario I called in well around 4p so they counted the remainder of the day sick but hit me with a 6am report for the next day. For me, if I'm going to get charged for sick till midnight I might as well be sick till midnight.
