    If I go sick I don't get payed properly, I'd rather drag myself to work and get the cash.:)
    I wouldn't mind a day or 2 off.

    I'm assuming they contain mass amounts of Aspartame and Phenylalanine (which causes diarrhea if you have loads). Aspartame is a dodgy subject. People argue it causes Parkinsons, neurotoxicity and so on. Rumours that it might of caused Micahel J Fox' Parkinsons are popular. I can't make my mind up whether it's dangerous or not, but I don't drink diet Coke etc if its warm (aspartame turns into some dangerous chemical if its warm according to some people). This website explans a lot more.

    Aspartame - danger

    I much prefer it to normal Coke, I usually drink juice like Ribena or Oasis tho. Much more refreshing:)
