Rules:

  1. Be civil and nice.
  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.

Even non-life-threatening injuries can impair your driving and cause worse on the way to the hospital.

Just call an ambulance and explain the injury, they can evaluate if and how much you should be prioritised over others/ not.

Why waste doctors’ time on something that’ll pass on its own with a bit of rest and paracetamol?

Mandatory sick notes in my country, hate it.

That's why I said you could have someone drive you.

And mandatory sick notes are stupid.

Plenty of places you don't need a sick note for a day off.
