is that even legal? i feel like that should not be legal…

you can be sick more than 3 times but then they do an “investigation” and u have to prove you have an ongoing underlying health condition to be allowed more sick absence otherwise u get like a disciplinary action or some shit even if you get a letter from a gp its not enough lol

at the company i work for there is a rule you cant be sick more than 3 times in 12 months which is literally bullshit and i had a food posioning yesterday and i’m feeling so weak not to even mention how i feel mentally and the last thing i feel like i should do is go to work for 10 hours and stand on my feed the whole day but i’ve already been sick once and me calling in sick again would literally mean i can only get ill once before january 2019 (which is quite hard also for someone with somatization of symptoms every time my mental health gets bad but i bet u they wont give a shit about that) anyway i’m calling in sick because its so against my values to prioritize work (when i can afford to) over mental and physical health but i’m so mad

i called in sick now and the manager in started interrogating me how bad is it and if i’m aware this is my second time being ill and i know its her job kinda but also can u give me a break this i was already feeling shit about calling in sick and this gave me so much more anxiety about it i just need to look after my health ok?
