    Yes, do your job today.

    This is the responsible thing to do, and it also gives others the impression you are a hard worker. If you decided to take the day off, future employers might get the impression you are a slacker. Folks talk, and opinions fly.

    I would do the responsible thing and go to work. That way your record stays clean as a reliable person. They will know if you call in with any excuse that it is because you are starting a new job. Trust me. I have seen it time and time again at my workplace and the boss knew it too. It is just for 1 more day. Then strating next weekend you can start enjoying your weekends off.

    My mom always told me to never burn your bridges. Go to work today. You may enjoy having the day off but in the long run it could backfire. What if this other job doesn't work out and you want to go back to this job? It's only one more day ... go to work. Good luck with your new job!

    i think you should GO into work, you work hard and im sure make some good money if you have been there long, instead of taking sick days let them accumulate then take a vacation and plan something! believe me all day youll be saying "ehh i should have went in--" youll feel guilty! just go and get it over with and plan a vacation soon, let them know and do something fun, if you dont go anywhere, at least get some things done around the house. gd luck!

    What exactly do you have to get done at work?

    If they love yous o much, they will understnd.

    Take a freaking day off. You deserve it - be selfish.

    Its just a job that you no longer have. Maybe call and explain hey I have a lot to get ready for today, Sorry but I can not come in.

    there is no human being who can do this, so that you may have a lengthy seek for. lol I actually have suggested in the previous, all of us set out on a adventure. which means we get products of the puzzle as we bypass alongside. We make judgements from what we study. those judgements make sure what number products we get at a time. the adventure hence, is own, so even absolutely everyone who has achieved maximum of theirs can merely provide you with the international as they have seen it

    If I were you I would take the weekend off. Don't give an excusse, just call talk to your boss or who ever it is you go to, and just tell him/her that you are burnt out and need a weekend to your self to get refreshed. We are only humman. Everyone needs a break.

    I think that you should go to work and finish off your job and tasks gracefully. Its better not go give false excuses and not go to work. You will feel bad later.

    You wouldn't like it, if a Company, just asked youto leave. Without giving you time to get another Job. Your actions, are gonna follow you. We all have to except the responsibilties for our actions. Trust me, on this.
