We sort of have to. Some time ago, the rules were changed in sick leave. We have sick time, but unless certain conditions are made, we cant exactly always use it. Like we have to plan it early. And if we get sick during the week, the first day we use sick leave, we dont get paid for it. Its to encourage us not to be sick or use sick leave...

Freaking ouch. How on earth do you *plan* sick leave?

You don't... Which was what they were going for. Since some people abused the old sick leave system, they decided to punish everybody. Funny thing is, the people who use to abuse it are gone. Not to mention, they didn't really give those people an alternative until after changing the policy. Anyway, basically, the first day you miss work for being sick, you don't get paid. You do get sick leave for everyday after that. But if it's 3 days or ore that you miss, you can't come back to work without a doctor's note.

You can, however, use sick leave for doctor appointments, so we have that, I guess... Also, the abuse was that people would call out saying they were sick, which would inconvenience the bosses. But taking away paid leave didn't really fix anything because people could, and did, still call out. And it sucked for people who really were sick, because they would miss at least one day of pay because the company is so paranoid that someone would call out sick and make them have to work more... Though, they are letting us sell now, which helps because now people can sell their leave so it's not wasted instead of having to use it to get something out of it...

Edit: Oh. I forgot. There is one way to get sick pay on the first day of sick leave. A supervisor can send you home. Some of them are pretty good about sending home sick people since we deal with a lot elderly customers, and other very sick customers. My supervisor has made it clear that it's unlikely he'll send us home. But he means my section. As he has sent home the parts girl a few times and stuff like that... Luckily, I have the other job to rely on if anything goes wrong here...
