The following Dodgers have been smited by the JDK for their crimes against Jam:
All the girls! for picking on the JDK and damaging his already delicate self esteem!
The Basserd Who Nicked Copper's Stuff For the offense of nicking Copper's stuff. You are a tw*t, whoever you are and we all hope you get run over by a tram in Nottingham. Or Liverpool. Or whereever else they have trams!
Copper For the crime of playing with her Wii instead of her Jammie pals!
OK - So I only had 1 sick day last year and I've only had 1/2 a sick day this year - so am I being a fool to myself?
Should I bung a few and still come in under the average? or.... if I bung one - will I then promptly get sick and have to go into work when ill because I've just had time off?
I shall leave it to the collective wisdom of this board to decide my fate......

I haven't had a sick day for years, now, however it was very, very tempting this morning and Vic was almost (but not quite) advocating it. What is the average?
I don't think you should. All that will happen is that all the crap that is currently on your desk will breed, multiply and you will come back to twice as much crap as before, therefore tempting you into another sick day which will exacerbate the situation leading you into an unending spiral of crap-induced sick days...
Wise words indeed - I think the average is 10 per year but despite this being the average - I think your boss would think once every six weeks to be a bit dodgy -
I hopefully have some leave coming up soon - so I will look forward to that instead!

Fair doos, mate. I'm sure it was really funny. In fact I'm going to go out on a limb here and say: "Ha aha ha ha ha ha ha ha hee hee hee hee ha ha ha aha aho ho ho ho ho (pause for breath) aaaahhhh aha ha ha ha ha ha ha hee hee hee hee ha ha ha aha aho ho ho ho ho."
