Seems like a very British thing.
In the US, both men and women try to ignore and downplay sickness, because we have a limited number of sick days and sometimes even if we take them we get fired.
Samies from Russia.
This meme spoke to me from a slightly different angle, non-job related but more abot how we perceive our own bodies as a reliable tool. One thing is an understandable physical injury you can rationalize like you did A and got B, but when your body is slow to recover or show weird signals you don't control or understand yourself, it causes more stress than having both legs in a cast. Some of my folks who caught bad covid were completely lost because they just didn't get how this small shit rendered them nearly unable to breath. It's probably corresponds to some gender studies but I do too feel double uncomfortable when something like that occurs.
Limited amount of sick days? What if you're out? You're not allowed to get sick anymore?
Basically you are expected to either just go in sick or take the day and not be paid. Also if you take the day, depending on how bad your boss is they could try to call you a no call/no show. A strike at best or a reason for termination at worst.
You're often also responsible for finding somebody to cover your shift.
Like, why even have a manager?
