I called off sick today but my sup still wanted me to come in

[ski or die]

If they harass you into finally coming in, step outside their office, eat a package of mustard, then go back in the office and upchuck on their desk. Tell them, "I don't think I feel well like I had told you over the phone, I'm going home". Let them clean up the mess.

and another pt sup called me and let me know I need to come in today because my we are really short staffed... that's not my problem they should hire more people.

so I didn't report today

will I be okay?

I can see the headline now. UPS DRIVER SICKENS HUNDERDS (if the situation applied to a driver)

Offer to give them a stool sample they can run a diagnostic check up on. Tell him you will leave it on his desk in the morning.

I'm not sure if this is urban legend among UPSers, but I did hear that a driver actually did that very thing. I hope it's true

if you call in sick, have a doctors note..
if you call in and have option 3 days, tell them you are using an option 3 day.
if they keep asking, you tell them you are using an option 3 day until they hang up.

7 extra steps not worth the time of day.

I like to entertain them. Give them a false sense of power

You don't need a doctor's note to call out one day. If I have explosive diarrhea, I don't need a doctor to verify that, I just don't feel like going to work feeling like that

Don't have sick days in this area, because of this we have no reason to lie. When I need a day off for any reason other than being ill I tell them I have personal business to take care of. And yes most times they will ask what that it is and I always reply, it's personal.
