I've been asked for a note from the doctor.
I had one boss who tried to go that route, but after I said "Really? None of my previous managers here have ever needed that. Is this org just ... different?", that silliness stopped.
Mind you, when I tell my boss that I'm taking a day off, they usually ask me if it's for some fancy goth event, and will I take pictures? But that's because they know me well.
If I took the time off, I don't owe my boss an explanation of what I'm doing with that time.
Yep.
Lucky. I've been asked for a note from the doctor.
I got asked this one time when I took 2.5 sick days in a row. Count them. One, two, and a half. And I got fussed at for "taking so much sick time." My only response was to look at her (my boss) and say, "Are you serious?" She dropped it at that point.

I worked at an insurance company once that gave two sick days per year. And if you were sick for more than two days in a row, it was company policy to require a doctor's note.
That place sucked. Mothers got in trouble for taking time off to take their sick kids to the doctor.
There is a possibility of being asked for a note - but I think it is after 5 days of being out ( you need a note from a doctor to say you are fit ) or a pattern ( like 1 more day of vacation , or a specific day of the week ) and even then it is up to the manager
Hey Beth, do you need the cat carrier? (see my post above). I am taking stuff to donate today, so let me know ASAP.
Cat carrier I have
I've wanted something like this since we've moved into this house -- we need someplace to put them when they are ill , or when we need to keep them out of a construction zone. Our house only has one bathroom, so I can't do what I did at other houses.
okay, off to Goodwill it goes.
ETA: Got it. Will keep for you. Plus you can have some of my crazy Meyer lemons when you come over.
Yeah, I've definitely worked at places where the policy was, if you were taking more than X number of sick days, you needed a doctor's note (usually 5, I think). Even though it was sick and vacation in the same pot, they wanted if you were going to be out UNEXPECTEDLY (sick), to know it was real (I don't know that this policy was necessarily enforced--if someone came back with a big cast on their leg or whatever). If it was vacation, they'd know ahead of time, you'd have asked for it.
Happy Birthday, Drew.
