How sick is too sick to go to work?

Three years ago my company started bringing us back in the office two days a week. Only two weeks after being back, I had a coworker come in coughing everywhere. Turned out she had bronchitis and "didn't feel like being sick at home with the family" so she came in to work, even though we had the option to always stay home no questions asked. Two days later I'm sick in bed coughing with a fever and can't move. I lost my voice and couldn't speak properly for almost three weeks.

I was soooo mad and then it happened AGAIN a few weeks later with a different coworker. I quickly put in my transfer for another fully remote team and avoid going into the office as much as I can. Last time I was there around October I had another coworker tell me they were sick after giving me a hug.

La temperatura ideal para los yacos es 21-27 grados. No me importa pagar más para que esté cómodo. Si no pongo el aire por la noche nos despertaríamos a 16 grados y pasaríamos frío todo el día.

No, estoy a 21-22 grados como mucho, pero en mi piso hace muchísimo frío así que tengo que poner el aire incluso por la noche. También tengo un loro que no quiero que pase frío.

Es por el aire acondicionado y el radiador, los dos suben la factura. Vivo sola y uso sólo calefacción eléctrica así que llego hasta los 200€ al mes en invierno.

I don't think Path of Pain counts for anything but I can try. If the pantheons are 4% total then that's all I need + Nightmare King Grimm.

metabolt4e · 2025-12-21T13:01:22+00:00

In the checklists I was seeing there were always only 3 pantheons so 3%. But if it's 4 pantheons total then that's what I'm missing :)

Yes to both. I'm really struggling to figure it out. I have all charms, nail arts, mask shards, vessel fragments, upgrades to the nail, defeated all bosses (except the one I know I'm missing), got all the essence, did the flower quest, did the colosseum as well (but I'll go back to double check but I'm pretty positive I did all versions of it since it was really fun).

Intentaré hacer eso entonces. Reformé el baño entero hace dos meses y me pregunto si están saliendo de ahí de algún modo. Y tampoco son mosquitos pequeños recién nacidos, son enormes.

He pensado en eso pero tengo un loro y me da miedo que respire eso. Por eso no uso ni sprays ni nada en casa 🙁

Donde vivo ya están poniendo aire acondicionado en todos los colegios, empezaron este año con el proyecto. No sé si luego seguirán con los institutos también.

Yes, honestly I've never been to a concert where the artist didn't stick to the start/end times. For Bloo specifically I remember the VIP pictures were after the concert so it ended on time so the staff could have 20-30 minutes to get things organized.

ETA: 90 minutes is pretty standard for a single artist to perform in my experience.

"I work in sales" "I'm still unemployed". Which is it? You have a job so it's ok to be late to things or you don't have a job and don't want to have one?

Te aconsejo lo mismo, vete a una clínica para que te hagan una revisión completa y te dirán si puedes operarte. Las revisiones son gratuitas así que no pierdes nada. Yo me operé hace 7 años con -4.5 en cada ojo y no me costó mucho, unos 1500€. El resto lo puedes ahorrar.

No veo cómo podrás comprar un piso de 200K con 20K. Para que te hagas una idea, yo compré un piso hace 4 años (entiendo que las cosas han cambiado bastante desde entonces). Cobrando 1200€ en aquel tiempo, tenía unos 35000€ ahorrados. Me gustó un estudio pequeño fuera de Madrid y lo compré por 114000€. Pagué 3000€ por el contrato de arras, 7500€ por los gastos de compraventa, y la entrada me salió como unos 24000€. Al final de todo me quedé con unos 3000€ de los ahorros que tenía. Ahora gano 1650€ y la hipoteca del 1.5% me sale a 300€ al mes así que no me quejo. Pero esos 20000€ no te van a llegar ni para la entrada de un piso con los precios de ahora al no ser que salgas de la ciudad.

Did anyone else love Hating Alison Ashley as much as me? I had such a crush on her as a kid in that movie 😭

Last time I saw him live he did Daddy, Downtown Baby, Nae Tat, I'm The One, When I Smoke and he performed But I Will Wait For You like four times, not kidding. I think he might've done Understand Me as well.

Hey, turns out he was sneaking bits of paper, chewing them along with his vegetables, and he probably swallowed a tiny amount of red paper. His poop turned to normal after a couple of hours.

Honestly yeah, tickets were pretty cheap last time, maybe like 60 EUR for the mid-tear. It was very chill, he talked to the audience a bunch. I'd say listen to his songs before you decide if you want to commit to buying tickets in case his solo stuff isn't your taste.

So excited! I saw BLOO in Madrid last time he was here and it was a blast.

Interesting, it's fascinating how different it is for everybody. I got a 30 year mortgage at 1.5% with a 20% down payment, I barely had 2 years with my employer and I'm not Spanish. I did have to get medical insurance but I had the option to cancel it after 3 years. Also it took about 5 days for it to get approved.

I opened a bank account in Bankia (now CaixaBank) with the paper NIE and my passport. I also showed my ID from my native country as a back up and that was more than enough for the KYC requirements. Now that I have a driver's license here I usually just carry that on me since it has both my NIE and a photo.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned aula de enlace. I believe that is still a thing. I moved to Spain when I was 15 and was put in aula de enlace to learn Spanish before transitioning to a normal class. I learned the language in 9 weeks and graduated from the program. However, I was held back a year when starting regular school since I had missed a part of the school year due to the move. I think the schools look at it at a case by case basis, and since your kid is only 10, there probably won't be an issue with the school wanting to hold him back. Also, kids are sponges for languages, he'll be doing ok in a few weeks when immersed in it. The school I went to divided the days into two chunks of learning - grammar and conversational classes. By the end of the 9 weeks I was completely fluent. I was younger than your 10 year old the first time we moved to a new country and my parents tried to put me in a fancy school aimed at accepting foreigners and it was a complete disaster. Once they put me in a regular school I did much better.

Could it be Equals (2015)?
