Right, we called those "mental health days".

But my point was about GP's comment, they were relating the sick call-outs to healthcare in the US. These folks are not sick in a way that any of the current healthcare debate (what's involved in this shutdown at least) would help them with at all.

What has them sick is a president who insults them, and a legislative branch that can't do its job.
