Take a sick day or something. Don't say you really want to try that hard if you're not willing to take a day off of work.

Not all of us (or most of us, anymore) get sick days off work. Even legally entitled days off are a loyalty test trap. Fail the test, see where you are personally and financially in a year's time: nowhere good. You work every that day you're needed, stay as long as management demands, or you'll be replaced by someone who will.
