Sick Time

Originally, I had the first 3 working days of 2019 booked off as vacation time. But I've been sick with the flu since December 27th, and even went to the Doctor last Friday, because I thought I had pneumonia. I don't have pneumonia, but I do have a flu bug that's been going around, and (according to my doctor) most people have it bad for about 2 weeks.
So, when I went to work on Monday, I was still sick. Actually, a lot of people at work right now are sick, so I fit right in. Then I asked my boss if I could change the vacation days to sick days instead. I told him I would have called in sick anyways, except for maybe on Friday, but that day I went to the doctor, so I wouldn't have been in the office until around lunchtime. So, he agreed, and approved those days off as sick. *yeah* Which means I still have lots of vacation time left this year!
