      Yep. The other one I always loved was being expected to get a medical certificate for sick leave. When you are actually sick that can be extremely difficult and often counterproductive. Fortunately I only need a stat dec these days, but I do have a written warning on file for taking sick leave without a certificate before. Because obviously if I’m too sick to work I’m perfectly capable of getting myself to the doctor’s to the doctors to fill out some paperwork.

        It’s utterly ridiculous. And when you’re particularly sick maybe exposing everyone in the clinic to your illness isn’t a great idea if it’s the contagious kind. Thank heavens for telehealth. I hope you recover fully soon - surely bound to happen with the expert purrfessionalism of Dr Meow.
