god theyre gonna start requiring doctors notes for call-outs at my job. i have had chronic migraine since age 9. when i call out it is usually because i have a migraine on the pain scale of 8 out of 10 or 9 out of 10 or 10 out of 10, and all three leave me completely immobilised, like i should not be operating heavy machinery (driving) im usually puking my guts out from the pain, and i literally visibly look like im having a stroke and have numbing in my left limbs. i do NOT go to the doctor bc i have lived through all these years where they dont do shit for you, they literally tell you to take NSAIDS and go to bed, and if i DO make it to any doctor or urgent care, theyre def not giving me a doctors note bc when i HAVE asked for one bc i had a migraine along with strep throat, or the flu, or a stomach bug, they think i am LYING and suddenly making it all up. so that leaves me with: i cant wait to collect unemployment in 6 months time after all my write ups for not having a doctors note.
