Too Sick To Go To Work

Using sick leave can be dangerous.

Too Sick to Come to Work

 

By Elton Camp

 

Yesterday, Joe work up with the flu

To stay home from work he must do

 

“How they will get by, I don’t know

However, I am just a lot too sick to go.”

 

Joe thought about the office with dismay

How, without him, it must be in disarray

 

Phone rang, he thought, urging his return

Although he did with a high fever burn

 

“It’s your supervisor,” his wife did say

And they have had a most marvelous day.”

 

“He wants you to take off a week or two

Because so much more work they can do.”

 

Always at work is the best way, no doubt

Don’t show how easy you are to do without
