Help calling in sick to work!?

Sometimes for various reasons, life happens and you desperately need a day off; a mental health day. Best to schedule one in advance and not leave your co-workers hanging. But it happens. It depends on the policies at your work. Usually you need doctors note after 3 days. But if you are taking these days often, they may ask for verification after 1 day. Go to another dentist, or take proof of your docs office hours. You may have to take the penalty. So next time, you may wonder if that day off is worth dealing with all of this.
