If you have an idea for a poll, please submit poll suggestions in the "Front Page Poll Questions" thread. :thumbup:

You know it ;)
 
When I was in middle school. Now I stay home to do any homework I didn't finish :thumbup:
 
Not for video games, but like Bryan, I too have called in to get my work done when I was in college
 
Other?

If I do call in sick from work, I probably end up playing games or something if I'm not like 100% bedridden. Never intentionally though. They do pay me slightly more than sitting around playing games earns me.
 
No. Gaming is purely a recreational activity for me (filthy casual) and I enjoy what I do more than I enjoy gaming.
 
It must've been easily 10-13 years ago I acted ill in school so I could get sent home- so I could go home to play some Medal of Honor (Vanguard?) on the PS2... The one and only time! XD
 
Nope always put work first as it is what pays my bills. In fact at the end of august will be 7 years with this company and i have only ever called in sick once because I was actually sick as a dog.
 
Never. Although I saw a class at school get cancelled this year cause everyone, including the teacher were out playing Fallout 4
 
Oh heavens, never, priorities comes 1st before any sort of this stuff. But the thought did cross my mind when i was 16.. lol
 
Never. Parent's would've never allowed me to when I was a kid lol. I didn't even play games when I was sick. Gaming, for me, isn't fun sick. Especially since I play competitively in CSGO and League.
 
Not called in sick, but I did take a day off intentionally to play DOOM. 10/10
