Rae Pearson Call Quotations

Unless you can't talk, all of your fingers are broken or you're in a coma somewhere, you should be able to call in yourself. It really is annoying for most of us employers to have cousins, husbands or mothers call in when the employee could call in themselves. That's not how you do business.

The old-school rule was, go to work and let them send you home. I disagree. If you have an infectious disease, don't come to work and make everyone else sick. Call in sick, but do it courteously. No matter what.
