In the good old days it was almost a
prize. A day off from class and school, a day to sleep and sit and watch T.V.
But as the years went by the work became complex, and it always had to be done.
Now sick days are an awful thing. If you’re not deathly ill you better head in,
and if you do stay home you better come tomorrow, ready to work doubly fast so
you can catch up, even though you still don’t feel well, and you’d really
rather be in bed.
I’d rather
be healthy at work than sick at home any day.
