Sick leave is quite boring because you don't have any strength to do anything. It is better to spend one's time indoors just recovering from illness. Usually, when I am on sick leave (luckily rarely) I just sleep and watch TV.
However, I wonder how boring sick leave was about 30 years ago when there was no such thing as Netflix, Viaplay, 75" UHD televisions or even iPhones. How people entertain him/herself on sick leave when there was absolutely nothing consumer electronics. Especially then, where you spent whole work day alone due sick leave.
Books are good entertainment too.
yes that is also true : )
Sick leave is also for that reason that your colleagues do not get sick.
I totally agree that.
