Every day I wake up and have to convince myself not to quit my job. Ngl it's starting to get real hard to convince myself

It's called a mental health day.

Came so close to doing that today. I am dragging ass today but the weekend is so close.

It's so tempting to put in my 2 weeks

In general, in response to this meme, because the weekend is close, a long suppressed desire to be an oompa oompa society refuses to accept or poor working conditions?

[–] moonsnotreal@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 10 months ago

All of the above

Calling "into" work? Did you mean to say "calling off work"?

[–] Kachilde@lemmy.world 19 points 10 months ago (1 children)

“Calling in” is a pretty common phrase where I live. You need to call in to your workplace, in order to take a day off work.

Calling out or off is the terminology i always hear in the pnw but it varies.

Its like people call round a bouts traffic circles in some places or when someone looks at a crash they're a looky lou or a rubber neck or as i refer to them assholes creating traffic.

Linguistics is fun.

I think it's because of the idiom "calling in sick". So he's "calling in [sick] (to where?) to work". Doesn't make much sense to me either but I'm not a native speaker.

You are correct
