I apply time-off for dental checkup ... medical checkup normally doctor give me half-day or one day MC

Technically, dental checkup is not considered MC aka unable to attend work due to health reason.
Unless if u say dental surgery maybe...

But it all depends on the company..

haha it depends on ur company lor. like my company there's 1 of my colleague absent due to dental appointment which they didnt consider annual leave. this is really unfair to us.

One day I have a headache and not fit to work. My body gave up that day. I went to see the doctor and demanded for MC. The doctor on the other hand gave a time attendance leave. Come on ... how you expect me to work at that body condition! Went to office also a waste of time as I won't be productive.

Which doctor u go?
The clinic i go will give MC anytime....even ask me to take 2 days

you can go back to the clinic to get mc... normally the doctor will issue it to you....

but if u go to government clinic they wont issue mc. they onli issue timesheet dunno y. anyway i dun k lar as long as i gv this then the hr never complaint tats it.
