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.

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.

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
