This is just going to be a nightmare.

We all know that one jackass who uses sick days like flex days and ruined it for everyone else, or that hardcase boss that could be knocking on Death's door and coming in to work anyways because 'hes tough' or any number of similar confluences.

So the real sick people are going to get screwed because we cant have nice things.

You know what happens to me??

I work alone, so if I'm sick during Tax Season I am screwed. I have cancelled appointments, resorted to drop-offs, etc. but I still have to work but nobody else is getting sick.

But you know what else happens a staggering amount of the time?

"Hey Locke, I called in sick at work today *hacks lung onto floor* so I figured what an opportune moment to get my taxes done!"

Thanks. Just....yeah...thanks.
