New Employee Has Used All of His Sick Days Already

The new employee calls in sick weekly.
On Monday this week.
On Tuesday last week.
On Wednesday the week before.




We wonder why he does not get into trouble.
Until we hear him call the boss

Thank you. Nepotism is alive and well in our school district. We joke "It's who you go to church with".
