Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.
As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.
Thank you and happy chatting!

There are TWO and only TWO options.
One is not explaining. Just say "I'm feeling sick and won't be making it in" Most will not pry.
If they're the type of people to pry, just say "I can't make it in, I think I caught a stomach bug"
That's it. There is no "mental health day", you don't have that chronic disease, you don't have a bad headache, you aren't staying home for your own comfort. You, my friend, are shidding out your doo doo ass. That is the only thing you will EVER imply to your work. Vomiting and farding and shidding. No one will ask. No one will try to get you to come in.
Yeah, if they try to push more, implying diarrhea almost always stops the discussion right then and there.
