If you're using sick days when you're not sick, you're stealing from your company, and it sure is their fucking business.

in my company, vacation days and sick days are one in the same.
i understand its a different story if your employer sets aside specific sick days. ive simply never been in an environment like that. i get 15 days off a year for vacation/sick days. theyre my days, and ive earned them. its no ones business but my own what i do with them. only once have i ever been asked to proide an excuse and that was after i was out unexpectedly for 3 days after having my wisdom teeth yanked. in that case it was reasonable for them to ask and i was prepared with a drs note.
but even if i did have to provide an excuse every time i was out, i would give them only the vaguest reason possible. thats more a reflection on my opinion of my employer than anything else.
