That is the issue - I don't want to fork out $50 for a piece of paper from a doctor to say that I was sick. I was sick, I told my boss I was happy to get one if he paid. He declined to pay.If he says you took 4 days off, then tell him you want 4 days sick leave !! If he doesnt pay for 4 days, then thats because he is wrong and trying to pull one on you. Sounds like a tosser to me. As he has declined to pay for a doc cert, then refuse to get one. You are not obligated to get one if he is not prepared to pay a reasonable expense to get the proof. His (your employer) choice is to either pay you 4 days sick leave (in which case go get a cert), or he has to pay for doc cert. As already explained, the weekend only comes into it IF you took Monday off (you didnt). Therefore you only took 2 days off. Stick to your guns, you are in the right. Good luck.	Iantech (16386)
