Who would have ever thought?
In the past (school, army, previous job), if I were sick, I wouldn't show up for school, or work (IZ), and during my army service I would get sick days or someone to cover my shift and stay in bed all day with a hot cup of soup that Shimrit would bring me from her mom.
Now, this new job that I'm at for a month and a half, I have 38C fever (that's 100.4F for you people) and not only did I come in to work, I came in early after staying late yesterday.
The thing is, I can take sick days, and naturally I've thought about it, but I have a visit from the head of IT Europe at Abbott on Monday and I have a billion things to do like organize my server room (half the walls for the server itself aren't even here yet..., my comm-wall which looks like shit, learn a whole bunch of useless things, organize my hardware in drawers that don't quite exist yet... A ton and a half of work to be done by tomorrow evening.
With a fever.
And tomorrow I'm supposed to go out for drinks with Liad (and whoever wants to join!) because I haven't seen him in about 7 weeks, and I'm going to be dead but I'll be there. Dead.
38C. I don't get that sick. I usually make it up. I'm so drugged up right now, you have no idea. And I'm procrastinating.... Not actually doing all the things I'm supposed to do....
