One day I genuinely wasn’t feeling well, so I took a sick day.
The next day, I still didn’t feel better — but I went to work anyway, just because I felt guilty knowing two other coworkers were already off.

Has it ever happened to you that you showed up to work even when you weren’t well, simply because you felt responsible or guilty?

This has happened to me more times than I can count. Eventually, I realized that people call out regardless of how it might affect me. I had to learn to stop doing what was best for everyone else and start focusing on what was best for me.

Thats a wise approach

I think it's tough because many have this misconception that being sick should only take a day or two. When in reality, many illnesses take a week or even longer to fully run their course. So many people are rushing their healing process and subsequently prolonging it while also exposing others to illness. I've been there, I think most people have.

But sometimes you have no choice and you have to attend work even if you do not want to

1 Technical Manager
1 Platform Owner

All domestic and some additional development is done by one of our partners
