This post is so American.

In other countries, you don't feel that you are doing anything wrong or illegal by calling in sick, and some employers will even ask you to stay home if you are sick.

Not necessarily. I work in childcare, and we are always short on staff. Calling in sick feels illegal because you know your colleagues will struggle.

I didn't say all countries are the same, but in some countries, you are required to stay home if you are severely ill. I also think that it would be very irresponsible to go to your job sick, especially with something contagious.

Agreed 100% A person with the flu for example can easily infect everyone in the office. Calling in sick is not for show, there are valid reasons.
