If the occurrence happens often, then maybe I would need to seek medical help and a doctors note is no big deal.
That's all well and good, and I agree with you...but that's a far cry from being illegal.

AWAC once sent a guy to the doctor for calling in sick. Went to the ER (company has to pay now when they require it) they found some huge issue and he went into surgery right away. It literally saved his life.
