Sick - yes, injured - no. I work a 24/48 shift. Since I'm at work for 24 hrs, we have beds. When the alarm goes off, instant adrenaline, then go back to bed. I did call in sick in '96 once. If I am truly pukey sick, I take a vacation day and save the sick leave as I have a cap on vacation hours but not on sick leave. I have 1400 hours of sick leave but can only bank up to 276 hours of vacation. What you have to remember is that when I take a day off, it's 24 hours, not 8 hours.
