I told my employer to get lost and they did
I've been off work for the last 4 days with a nasty cold.
I emailed my work, they said they need a sick note from a gp* to pay me
I check my gps website, they refuse to sign any sick note of less than 7 days
I ask if my employer is happy to pay for a private gp
Nah they don't need a sick note anymore
I take an extra sick day out of spite
*GP = primary care practioner in America

According to gov.uk a dick note is only needed if you are taking 7+ days off

In the UK no, Sick pay is shockingly bad.conrad wrote: ↑Wed Oct 11, 2023 1:09 amIsn't that illegal?WineAllWine wrote: ↑Wed Oct 11, 2023 12:53 am I emailed my work, they said they need a sick note from a gp* to pay me
The rule is: If you're off sick for 7 days or less you don't need a sick note, and your employer owes you SSP, which is £109.40 PER WEEK, (This is basically nothing). In the UK, most employers (in my experience) pay full time pay for a couple of weeks of sick days per year

Re: I told my employer to get lost and they did
Why do people think that asking for proof of sickness past a few days is some kind of crazy requirement?

Re: I told my employer to get lost and they did
well the point is they wanted a sick note for a short period, one so short that GPs won't actually offer them. Kinda a textbook unreasonable demand.

There is a lot of very bizarre nonsense being talked on this forum. I shall now remain silent and logoff until my points are vindicated.

Just came here to say: screech, retards. Screech and writhe like the worms you are. Your pathetic little cries will keep echoing around for a while before quietting down. There is one great outcome from this: I rised up the blood pressure of some of you shitheads and lowered your lifespan. I'm honestly tempted to do this more often just to see you screech and writhe more, but that wouldn't be cool of me. So come on haters, show me some more of your high blood pressure please.
