1 1/2 days. I made it in to the client some 90 miles from home, then by lunchtime I was throwing up so really couldn't stick it out. I thought about going in the next day, but didn't in the end.
As a permie I've never had more than 1 day. So I'm more of a lightweight sicky-taking skiver when contracting.Will work inside IR35. Or for food.Comment

2-days here
Walked into clinic a couple of year ago with cyst, limped back out later that afternoon. Back at client's site two days later.
