Yep, but if you call in sick with less than 2 hours notice you get a no-show.
This was mentioned earlier, and it's important to understand the details.
So you wake up at 4:00 for a 6:00 report feeling totally unfit. By the time you gather your wits and get to the phone it's 4:10.

I would rather be on the street having made the correct decisions rather than prostituting myself for
any employer.
