Feel better gcj. I work while sick unless I'm vomitting, which has only happened on weekends since I've been open (knocking on wood). I closed one day ever because I couldn't breathe and I was dizzy and so sick with a cold, but the dcparents knew I was in trouble because I've worked through everything for years, so they were understanding. If you do your very best to be reliable for the parents they won't be mad at you when you really, really need a day off.
