I usually say its something I ate the night before. that usually gives me 1 - 2 days .

last time I went in I said this.

They played around with my stomach and said there is some stuff going on in there.

I was fine.

So who is the liar ?

I am with Sled on this one

My work doesnt require a sick certificate if its only 1 day.

If however its 3 or more days then i definately need a doctors certificate

So i am guessing its the same for you as well craig.

And as for excuses:

1. a massive headache

2. Diarhea (not sure of the spelling lol)

3. bad cough, runny nose and general soreness (possibly from something that you ate over the weekend, blame some restaurent for that)

Issue here is that your sick day falls on a Monday - a day after the weekend, so they'll most likely ask/demand a sick certificate otherwise they will assume you're partied hard all weekend!

My previous workplace used to have the same policy - if it was a sick day mid-week, no questions asked, but if it was a Monday or a Friday, they came down hard on you!

where i work if your sick day is immediately before or after your weekend, you need a sick cert, or if you have 2 or more days off in a row.

If I wish to be paid.

Cronic makes a good point here.......it may be up to company policy if it falls on a Monday or maybe even on a Friday.

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
    • Also wanted to say, my new spark plugs are blackened looks like it's very rich. I have splitfire coilpacks but stock coilpack loom and ignitor. I tried directly grounding the ignitor ground to body as well.
