report sick, self-declared Attend C..
yesterday i woke up with a sore throat and a bad cough.. the kind that if it goes untreated, it may lead to a fever and stuff. so it was pretty uncomfortable the whole day. last nite, went to kawasaki for my fren's birthday dinner... btw, happy birthday ivan!!... so after the dinner, i was feeling real bad, maybe cos of some deep fried chicken i ate.
so today when i woke up, i decided to call for a day off =)
the good thing about working in japan is that you don't need an mc to ask for sick leave. u can just call the manager and tell him u are not feeling well, and u can dun go to work for the day. i've heard from some singaporean friends who are working in some banks here for many years, they have colleagues who disappear for half a year and up, just telling the boss that they are stressed at work and cannot perform!! yes, no mc, no nothing. and the best thing is that, the company cannot fire them because it will be discrimination against ppl who fall ill or not feeling well frequently. so they can just decide to pop back up at work after a year or 2 and start working again... weird huh?
so back to the topic on whether i am sick today or not... of course i am not feeling well. told my boss i have a bad cough (true) and a fever (impending actually =p). but the rest today was good. because i felt much better after resting today. who know's if i went to work this morning, my condition would have worsened? hehe...
anyway the bottomline is that i am now at dorm, just woke up, and writing this blog =) probably my "jan 24th" came a week late =)
