I was getting sick monday during the day. monday night I had a horrible sore throat and headache... I could hardly stand up. I stayed home tuesday, and wednesday.. by yesterday afternoon I was feeling a little better. Last night at like 4am I woke up with a SPLITTING headache... I took some tylenol and nyquil and went back to bed. I woke up this morning at 8am with a little bit of a sore throat but not bad... so I went to work.

Now I'm starting to feel a little bad again.. head starting to hurt.. throat hurts more...

should I go home or wait it out? I do have stuff to get done, but nothing job-threatening if it's not done until tommorow or monday.
 
Stay at work, you've already done the toughest part, which is getting your butt to work. Why waste sick time when your already there?
 
stick it out today, take off tomorrow plus the weekend, and that will be sufficent time to get well, hopefully.
 
I say go home, but it was dependent on you being in a position to do so without reprieve or your boss thinking you are milking it. if you have the pull to go home without feeling guilty, do it.

sick people at work = me catching whatever they have

my boss doesn't care. I dunno if it affects my sicktime.. it's supposed to, but my boss never enters my sick/vacation time so I dunno
 
Go home! The sooner you rest, the sooner your body can fight it off. Plus no one wants you spreading it around.

Stay at work at least another 30 minutes. I'm not done with your wife yet 😀

Wait a minute, I thought I was hiding in the closet because her husband came home early!!! 😛
 
i like my work, if i feel grotty while im at work and i go home its not registered as being sick or anything....hehe, just get sent home early like school..lol

personally if im a bit sniffly i come in to work, if however i have a sore throat as well then i dont, i work on a phone, so not only would it be difficult for me to talk for 5 hours nonstop, but also unfair on the 40 or so people around me who work on the phone as well to give them a bad throat.......
