This makes me legitimately angry. If you are sick, please stay home, I don't care if you feel "well enough to work". Keep your viruses away from me and everyone else you work with. You're not getting any brownie points for "being a trooper", everyone is just going to be annoyed at you for getting them sick.

Possibly I've just hit the boss jackpot 11 times in a row, but I've never been punished for staying home when sick. When I've felt capable, I've worked from home when sick, but sometimes I haven't even done that.
Assumptions aside, the rest of the people you're endangering don't care what your boss thinks, so, maybe everyone should reevaluate their priorities. Bosses included.
It's kind of hard to pull bricks at the building site or sell groceries at the shop from your living room, you know, cause of the distance and all that.
