I have a few times, but I don't have to have a reason. Just call in and say I wont be in today. Government

If I call in sick, I'm too busy being sick to work on anything other than occupying my bed. And even then it's difficult to call in, I don't unless I can't hardly reach the phone 2' from my head.

Your a good man I'd hire you but that's not what I'm looking for I want to know the RCaddicks that would go as far to call in sick to work on there rig that's it I know some people like myself can't because were needed to much . You better have one foot in the grave to call in sick around here let me tell ya . It's all for fun that's it

I have once or twice. Call in and say I won't be there, done.

We're kinda forced to call in once in awhile now. Some vacation was taken away and called 'sick time' for us beginning this year.

I actually overheard a former co-worker at my last job say this to his supervisor when asked why he had missed the previous day. The supe was speechless. I laughed so hard I shot coffee out my nose and all over my computer monitor.

Never "played" sick just to work on my crawler, but have worked on it out of boredom while off sick.

Every time new parts come in the mail, I'm overcome with excitement to the point of being a bit I'll.. Cough cough..
I even spend "real" sick days working on rigs, coughing and gaging, aches and pains and all..
