LivingInClip 0 #1 December 14, 2003 Alright - I called in today due to snow, ice and rain (I live on the backroads - there is no way I am driving 40 mintues of hell just to work ). So, here's the question! Where you work - how many sick days are you allowed, before you're fired? How far do you have to drive? And how many have you used already? Me, this will be my third. Where I work, a sick day counts from the day you use it to, to one year exactly. So, this day will drop off on Dec 14th of 04'. The two previous ones, will drop off mid-Nov of 04' and one drops off next week, because I called in last year around this time when I got my new TV. We're allowed five call ins, then you sign something saying you won't call in again for a whole year. After that, if you call in you're fired. I've never had three before - shrugs-, so I feel a bit uncomfortable, but oh well. Oh and our sick days can equal one week. See'ing as I called in today,I have the option to take all week off now and it only count as one sick day used. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oldnewbie 0 #2 December 14, 2003 Hi!!! I live 7 miles from work!! I haven't missed any days yet this year!!! yet! I get 12 personal days, which can be used anytime i want, as long as it isn't the day before, or the day after a holiday!!! Its nice not having sick days. I always hated lying to the boss!! We can save up to 70 personal days. I only have 65 days saved up. I don't think i will be running out of them anytime soon. But they would be nice if i had a long term illness. Gosh, I hope you don't miss that many more days!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LivingInClip 0 #3 December 14, 2003 I always average at least two call in's a year, it's a given. I have been known to walk in, walk back out for the week. Never had three. I wouldn't of called in today, but I know one of them drops off next week, which brings me back down to two! Plus, if I "need" to call in next year, I'll have all my personal days, vacation and floating holidays I can take instead of an actual sick day. We get our sick days , which equal one week. One floating holiday - to be taken any day , you want. 12 personal hours , to be taken whenever you want. Plus whatever vacation you have - which next year, will be three weeks.
