Today, I have pink eye in both eyes, the stomach virus, and a cold. I'm also sitting at work because my boss "doesn't believe in sick days." FML

I'm pretty sure you have a valid excuse here. Isn't this illegal in some way?

if you throw up on his desk, I'm sure he'll reconsider.

You can't be that sick~ said the evil boss

no worries you'll have your revenge everybody in that office is going to have pink eye if I was your coworker I would be pissed off when I saw you at work with that

I will never, ever understand this 'at will' employment that makes worker abuse like this even possible.

You should have at least done something. Call corporate or something.

Get a doctors note! It is illegal!

It's probably not. I don't know the specific laws in PA, but the US in general has some pretty screwed up labor laws. If OP complains, they cold probably get fired. They could also probably get fired for making the rest of the office sick. The US needs some serious labor reform.

I'm pretty sure PA is an at will state. It's not illegal.

Three opportunistic infections all at the same time? Are you immunocompromised?? Because it seems like you have a serious health problem.

Eh i had mono, a cold and double ear infections at the same time. Some people are just unlucky

I had whooping cough and step (first and only time at 22) at same time. Yes, I was a camp nurse. Damn germinator kids. My boss told me to get out until I wasn't contagious

Are you a medical professional? Give OP a break! That's not uncommon. Don't worry; Get better soon! And yes, I am a medical professional.

Nah he's just Bad Luck Brian

All work no play please keep making these companies richer, even if that means risking your health. No big deal right?

Do you by chance work in Hell? And is your boss Satan? That'd be my guess after reading this.
