The argument against sick days is fucking bonkers to me. You want people to come in and get the rest of the office sick?? One of the many many reasons I prefer working from home.
I got a bad cold or something one time. I spent 2 weeks working from home then the boss told me to go to a doctor. Went and they found nothing so I had to come in. 1.5 weeks later I was over it but not before the rest of the office got pissed at me for getting them sick. I just told them I was forced to come in.
It’s not so much the argument it’s workplace policies that say 6 or more days a year means you can be fired with cause. A late clock-in counts as half of one of those.
At least that’s been standard at most places I’ve worked.

That’s the problem with Gen Z: they don’t want to SHARE
GEN Z IS KILLING WORKING YOURSELF TO DEATH

Brutal. There is a world beyond the American dystopia, you know.
And I’ve learned it doesn’t want us unless we wanna be nomads or we really have something amazing to offer.
(Maybe I’m setting the bar too high looking into Scandanavia lol)
You need a new career, yikes
That’s rough. Not even my shittier jobs have had that policy
2020 taught people nothing.
