should i take off work?

Okay. i work at Burger King and i am planning to take Saturday off, call in sick, whatever you want to call it. I havent done it since i had my car wreck a month ago. anyway, i have to go in at 8 in the morning and i dont want to go in that early because im not used to the morning straight. also, the a/c doesnt work and usually, the ***** works the morning shift. my grandparents are having their 45th anniversary and i dont want to seem disrespectful by going out to eat smelling like onion rings and looking like a mess. i know they wouldnt care if i went smelling or looking bad or not but i would feel bad about it. I was planning to call in around 6:30 am and tell them i caught a stomach bug and i'd be willing to work another day to make up for it

also, I may ask if I could work the drive thru part of that day so I wouldn't be sweating as bad because it is soooo hot in there
