  • There is no enjoying a sick day like when you were a kid if you need a note. What is the #1 thing that doctors recommend for minor illness? Rest (and fluids). What am I not doing if I’m calling my PCP to see if i can make a day-of appointment, or checking the nearest urgent cares to see if they have any slots available, and driving or taking public transit to said appointment, and waiting up to 4 hours for my name to be called, and then waiting for the provider to come to the room, and then making the trek home. Go on, guess. I’ve got time. I’m just sitting here listening attentively for my name.

    You really, as a sick person, need get up early to get a head start at the urgent care just so you can get home at a reasonable hour to do the thing that will make you healthy enough to work the next day.
