Should i call in sick?!


Question: Should i call in sick?
I'm 21 weeks pregnant and since yesterday I've had a terrible sore throst, stuffy nose, some mild eye watering and the occasional cough. I didn't sleep well at all last night because of my throat
I just started my job last Monday so I'm afraid to call in sick so soon, but at the same time I work in a fast food place (Tacotime) and don't want to risk getting customers or other staff sick.
Normally in a retail situation I would probably still go in, but touching food is a whole different thing. Plus, I'm pregnant and am worried if i get worse, it will affect the baby

Answers:

So not what she was asking Ali. I would call your boss and explain to him or her the situation, that you're sick and the symptoms and that you understand that you just started working there but you don't want to get anyone sick, working around food could make things worse. He\She will see that you are putting forth your best effort.



yes sweetheart. you shouldn't be under pressure when you got a baby. also, i reccomend a doctor for you. good luck with your baby :)



Yes. To call in and not show up looks much better for you than not calling and not showing up.
