This is so spot on and hilarious because during COVID everyone from the highest of powers in the government to Wall Street to mom and pops feigned support for giving people days off for being sick. Now they don’t give a shit if you have COVID. Don’t give a shit if your kids have COVID. Don’t care if you’re sick at all. Get your ass to work or school and forget any extra paid time off for legit illness. We somehow duped all of you into rolling your vacation and sick time into all one and made people think they get extra time for vacation. When in reality you’re screwed if you actually get sick.You can't even call into work for food poisoning these days
When I was a teenager a hundred years ago, food poisoning wiped out an entire church camp of about fifty kids. I was throwing up every fifteen minutes. Eventually had to go to the emergency room where I got some kind of shot right in the butt cheek that hurt like hell. I've never been that sick since, and wouldn't wish it on anyone.There's a spectrum when it comes to food poisoning. It can range anywhere from so mild you don't know you have it, to deadly. Food poisoning can be extemely serious.
At least there was an actual issue unlike our boy Conor who's just making shit up.Seems like a random excuse, I expected something more serious. Not that it changes anything, the fight is off and health should always come first.
I had it bad a few months back. I was having stomach problems anyway and my doctor told me if it feels too painful and bloated I need to go the hospital. Fast forward a few days and I eat something dodgy, my stomach feels like it’s going to explode so I go to accident and emergency. I was sat there for hours just rocking backwards and forwards from the pain. Every so often god would show mercy on me and let me unleash a massive fart which would ease my stomach a little bit, but only momentarily. About 5 hours in I feel something happening, I get that tingly feeling in my jaw like when you’re about to throw up, and before I could react I projectile vomit all this black bile. The feeling of relief was immeasurable. I ended up apologising to those in the waiting room, but everyone just seemed happy that I was not in so much pain anymore
