I think this is the bad rumor running around and it's even perpetuated by some schedulers.
If you call in sick, and the trip you would otherwise have flown WOULD HAVE made you ineligible or illegal for a GS, you go behind the others. It's not for the whole month. It doesn't penalize you for sicking out, it just doesn't allow you to use sick to enhance access to GS flying.
