Controversial take, but why would someone deserve recognition for carrying out work duties as per contractual agreement?
He did what he was paid for, no more, no less. Being sick or not is by and large outside of someone's immediate control and should receive neither reward nor punishment.
You realize that almost every employee calls in sick a few times a year. Even the most dedicated employees.
Yes. Doesn't mean the ones who don't are special in any way.
You just contradicted yourself within one sentence. You admitted what a person did is in fact unique but it isn't special. I don't know how you don't see it when you yourself admits to it.
I'll shed some light, you're talking to an idiot that grew up around money.
