I don't have that kind of job. I've been at my current job for 5 years and I've never called out sick once.

What you mean is that you don't have that attitude.

hmmmm.. ok .. i'll try & show up

i have some work to do.. but i'll try

I lost most of my sick days because I didn't use them. I went to work the day of and the day after my spinal tap with a migraine that blinded me. I guess I don't have that attitude either.

I always used my sick time, but I just just a exec asst, not saving lives or anything. Now that I am laid off, I am soo happy I did use them. It's not like you can take them with you when you go.

I know. My own stupidity for not using them.

I just remembered Nicky's Vietnamese Sandwiches are on Atlantic. Great to go option for a bite to eat.

I have not had hot water since yesterday morning and my landlord just hung up on me when I called to complain. So I may be stinky, but I'm still coming.

Call 311.

Meh. Kind of the same thing. If I didn't have that kind of attitude, I wouldn't have that kind of job. Also, my sick days don't expire, so I can continue to accumulate them in case of some kind of catastrophe.

I work for a freak company. We only get five sick days and two personal days, you can't carry them over. Come December 31, you're screwed out of them. Also, you can't take ONE vacation day. You have to take all of them in a row, but no more than one week at a time. Plus, you max out at 3 weeks after 5 years. So if you've been there for 20 years, you still only get 3 weeks of vacation. I think McDonald's has a better policy than that. I keep telling myself to be optimistic and that the economy will turn in the next 3-5 years and I can get the hell out of there!

Wait, so if you go 3 years without taking a single sick day, but then need surgery and are out for 3 weeks, you don't get paid for the second and third week? That's BULLSHIT! If I had a job like that, I'd probably make sure to use all my sick days every year too. Your office must be empty in December.

They'll pay you for the second week - provided you haven't taken any vacation at all. The third week, you're on your own. Yep, come December, the office is like a ghost town.

To be back on topic, this is why I drink.

As usual I will be running late. It's a far way to walk!

Get a pony!

I don't think she can hear you Stacey. She's walking.

I know no one will probably read this since yall are out but if you crawl in towards park slope let me know!

That was fun. Except for the bad country singer with the amputee fetish.

Not that there's anything wrong with an amputee fetish. Do your thing.

right, you don't want to offend anyone. ...I wonder how many folks have that fetish.

More than one or two.

are you down with the plushies?

plushies could happen.

haven't, but could.

So, there is still only one item on the list.

public service announcement: do NOT Google "fetish".

"flexi fetish" pulls up some sites though.

just sayin....

nothing to be worried about on my side.

P.S. Let the record show that the moderator posted the first sex link on this thread. ...lest you think all mods are the same!

There's a bunch of crazy shit out there. I've seen guys include the names of child actresses in their online signatures. Creepy stuff.

you missed the conversation at brunch.

...born in '72, she is no child.
