I got sick last week and it takes about a week for me to fully recover to 100%. It takes most people that long. You usually may take one or two sicks days but the rest you end up going to work being 85% well.
I would certainly much prefer to work from home if I could and I might be able to if I request it. The thing is, I'm rather lazy in setting these things up and I much prefer to just go with the flow. It's partially my fault.
Anyhow, this post is about what would have happened if I had financial freedom. If I had as much income as needed flowing into my bank account to pay for all my expenses while I do nothing. If that were the case, I would be able to just stay at home and likely recover in 3 days rather than 7.
I have this gut feeling that prolonging your sickness is not actually good for your health in terms of your total life expectancy. Prolonging your cold KILLS you. Maybe it takes away a few days of your life who knows but I do know it does have a non-zero effect.
In summary, being trapped in a cubicle and being required to work when you are still partially recovering is not good for your body. Its just another way our dependence on a salaried job is killing us little by little.
