9. That's why where I work you have unlimited sick time

Well after 5 consecutive days you go on short term disability...I'm not sure how it works I've never been sick more than a couple days. It's all paid leave. This is a very large company. I came in once, I wasn't used to having sick time - never had it at previous jobs - and I was really stuffed up and my boss sent me home. I had a sinus infection

You know that OS is weeping reading that - so unfair he can't ever seem to find that kind of gravy train.

8. Bosses hate malingerers more than they hate losing money.

No amount of logic will convince employers to voluntarily provide sick time...especially paid sick time, even if you could prove that it is more cost effective. It is about control. They don't trust their employees because they themselves are untrustworthy, so everyone must be considered a faker. Attendance is a an occasion for disclipline and control.
They say they don't want to pay for time not worked. But they must. That is the price of doing business in a civilized country.
We do so desparetly need strong unions and Labor Law Reform......

8. Bosses hate Democrats love malingerers more than they hate losing money.

No amount of logic will convince employers democrats to work voluntarily provide sick time...especially paid sick time when they can get government freebies, even if you could prove that it is more cost effective. It is about control. They don't trust their employees citizens because they themselves are untrustworthy, so everyone must be considered a faker. Attendance Everything is a an occasion must be used for disclipline and control.
They say they don't want to pay for time not worked. But they must. That is the price of doing business in a civilized socialized country.

By the way, has anybody seen the big guy lately?

I haven't, and am wondering if poor dear Marta finally laid down the law to him.

The Proletarian Princess has shown us why she's still making minimum wage at the Korean Happy Hands Palace. She takes too many days off claiming Carpal Tunnel Syndrome from all of those happy endings.

Uh, DUmmies--there is most DEFINITELY a limit on paid sick time/hospital time before you need to claim FMLA.

Companies LOOOOOVVVVEEEEE to track that shit, and even if you're "entitled" to 80 hours of sick/hospital time per year (as I am), if you get over 40 hours in any 12-month running period, management has to have a little chat with you.

Now think about that...couple days sick here, couple days there, Junior has the sniffles, next thing you know boss man is coming down and asking you, "Why so much sick time?"

Couple more days sick, and you go to HR, couple more days, and you might be looking for another job if it's the same issue over and over and you don't take it under FMLA.

But then again, why am I telling you this?  You don't get paid sick days at Taco Bell.

He's around. He's the Dennis the Menace of the Labor Group.

Nearly all his posts there and in GD are stupid kpete-ish copy-and-paste jobs.

No updates on his gravy train project.
