I work for a small company, with 10 members of staff. One member of staff has been off sick for the last month.
She came in today to speak to manager as she's going to be off for at least another month if not longer, and was updating him.
Now when she left the others were making comments such as did you see how tanned she was, did you see how slim she was, she had even painted her nails, she doesn't look ill to me.
I was so angry with their behaviour, but I was the only one who was saying stuff like, if you are to ill to walk around, sitting in the garden in the sun is probably the only thing you can do, she's ill she's not eating of course she's slim, painting her nails probably took all of 10 minutes one evening whilst sat watching the tv.
They all told me that I was being unreasonable and no ill person would be doing those things.
So AIBU or more to the point gullible or does this poor woman need a break and lots of support at a difficult time?
