Yes, this is learning for me.

Sometimes, you are not feeling too well, but can still WFH. If go to office, need to get ready, drive, take train etc, sometimes that parts tak larat. In my previous companies, they were flexible these way.

Plus my company culture quite advanced with the times. HR is quite open. Sometimes policies can be rigid but the application can have some leeway.

Thus far my boss didn't make any issue with my management of staff.

Anyways I don't plan to intentionally disobey my boss as there's no point of that whatsoever. Just wanted to get you guys opinion in the overall.

Lesson learned
