When people are sick, it doesn't mean they can't work. For preventative reasons, sick people shouldn't come into the office, but they should always be given the opportunity to be productive from home. A few times when I've called in sick it was because of the hassle involved in getting ready for work with a cold (tissues, cough drops, various meds), the long commute while sick, and/or fearing I'd get other sick. When I had the option to work from home while sick I stayed productive, fought through the entire day, and kept my team healthy. Loved this post, Lance. I’m a huge advocate of #2.

I was here yesterday with a low fever. I obviously do not feel comfortable calling in sick. I like that you direct your message to the highest level executives. You're right, they need to set the example first. And as long as politics and favoritism is not abundant, that should lead the way to a better corporate culture.
