Going back to work tomorrow

[boogiewoogiebuglegal]

I've been off work for almost all of last week due to a kidney infection. It's a mixed bag-- I absolutely feel better, and I am ready to go back. But I've got a colleague who is a Martyr's Martyr and who always comes to work when she's sick and is judgy af about those who use stay home. And that is just not on. I can ignore her, for the most part, but I hate that the dynamic is such that she feels she HAS to make a big thing about how she comes to work when she's sick. (Evil Me would like to see her try that at some of the temps I ran last week---she wouldn't have tried it either.)

Regardless...here we are. Excelsior, as Stan Lee would say. I have a job to do. She just has to deal.

Welcome back to work? I'm glad you feel better, but ugh, I hate that kind of attitude that you should work through anything. NO! YOU SHOULD STAY HOME AND RECUPERATE!

I also hate the attitude that employees should not want to/feel bad about taking leave they earned. THEY EARNED IT. My BIL has to be careful about asking for his vacation time because too much at once is 'frowned upon' where he works, and it really pisses me off.

Anyway. Hi!
