Same for when I'm sick for me, sorry not sorry.
As long as it's not Covid level, since America doesn't mandate remotely reasonable paid time off, I'm not given enough PTO annually not to be be driven into deep depression living to go to work almost all the time.
I'm not going to waste my limited PTO being sick.
I'd rather get paid to be sick than do it for free, especially if it's going to cut into the whole 10 PTO days I get a year. Bonus points if I get the owner sick.
If we had mandated reasonable time off like an actual developed nation and not the gold plated shithole we are, I'd have enough job security and time off not to get my coworkers sick in our respective ruggedly individual quests to get moar by competing against each other. πΊπΈ
