Because 4 years ago, We went on vacation with him and his wife. A bareboat charter. Because we had planned it for over 6 months and I couldn't get the week off at my crappy regional, I called in sick.
So he can't "in good conscience" recommend anyone who would abuse sick policy.
THAT is where the term "douchbag" originates from
What would be even worse is if he told the guy "dude just call in sick so we can go on this trip".
Either way...that's a pretty messed up thing to do for a friend. What's up with the "holier than though" attitude?
