Calling in sick requires you to actually come into work…

Calling in sick requires you to actually come into work sick to get checked by a qualified nurse if you can't find coverage.
The title says it all, unfortunately I do see where they're coming from with this, however, it's absolute shit too. Because I don't want this traced back to me, I will not get into the details of my job. But one important thing is I work with older people that are extra sensitive to getting sick themselves.
Extra note, this doesn't apply if you actually get coverage out of pure miracle. The nurse thing is just the final resort because unfortunately we had a bad case of a bad apple making the whole batch bad ( aka one coworker abused the hell out of calling off constantly; making us have to work skeleton crew half the time )
Where I find this to be problematic is you can either be stuck on the toilet puking or likewise, so calling out sick would make it so no matter how far you actually live, you still have to actually drive all the way to the place so a nurse can see you in such a state if you can't find coverage ( and possibly infecting other people with it ), so they can say " yeah you're sick go home. "
Quite literally how they explained it when I asked for more information about it. Either that or the classic " get a doctor's note ", okay hope they can help with the copay too ( though they might just mean more severe cases, or you somehow get lucky enough to see a doctor on a day off so when you're still sick you can throw it at them or something idk )
So if anyone who dares work at this place I'm at and need a cheat day to do fuck all instead without coverage, good luck being convincing enough to look and act sick 🥲 gotta eat a really bad meal and a slight truth twist for it to be really convincing now. Or have some form of anxiety issue where it acts as if you're sick and you name it as something else idk just, whatever I hate this hellhole I hate some of my coworkers for causing this shit and I hate how I'm always asked to cover for them but can't even do the same favor back, y'all stay safe out here and drink water

"So if anyone who dares work at this place I'm at and need a cheat day to do fuck all instead without coverage, good luck being convincing enough to look and act sick" - people that aren't interested in a career complain about careers and expect anyone to care.
