Most employers have switched to PTO, and basically any sick time is burning vacation time.


Part of doing your job and performing is balancing that with sick leave.


Eh. I get 12 days of PTO and 9 holidays with two kids and no work from home. You get what you get from me.


Exactly right. If they want to give us telework, I’d stay home.


if you are that fragile and need more feel free to go on disability or without pay

No need. The PP can just go to work, sick, and do their best.

Its against the work policy to come in sick, you need to take time off. also note caring for children is pto not sick time, you can hire a nanny.

No. I’ll be there - you can deal.


I hope you get reported and sent home. When My coworker bragged about coming in sick with COVID, I very much reported him to our boss and our boss demanded that he go home. If you haven't learned how to live in a society yet, I'm happy to teach you.

Where do you work that is such a nanny state? Most places do not care that people are sick. They care that work is done when the boss wants it done.


I work among highly educated people who understand infectious diseases and the fact that they can easily pass them on to others who might literally die if they contract them. You apparently work among a bunch of morons.

So say where you work that has such generous leave policies to the point they kick out people if they are unwell. I’m sure all the posters without a lot of leave would love to apply to such a great place.

Honestly, when she said "I guess I'm breaking the rules, haha!" I would have straight up deadpanned. "Yeah, and it's really rude. I don't want your germs, you should go home."

Cold as ice, no laughing it off. At least make her squirm.


Professional worker's tasks just pile up if they don't work. Sure, they might have lots of leave, but they'll never finish all their work if they take it.

Shift workers often don't have that issue, but they're less likely to have plenty of leave or the ability to telework.

Why have you all turned this thread into something it's not?

It's not about shift workers, it's not about professional workers' with no telework or PTO. It's about professional workers with the option to work from home NOT staying home when sick.


I know you probably think you understand other people's jobs better than they do, but the reality is that you don't. You don't know what things they have to do, or what the impact would be of attempting to do it from home versus the office.

All other things being equal, most people would probably refer to telework if they're not feeling great. But its often more complicated than that, whether you want to admit it or not.


What do you do that’s so important that you cannot take off when sick? Outside of court, nothing. A doctor should take off and not get their patients sick.

Well one idiot that works with me didn't. But you're not smart enough to read and realize I've already said that to you as a warning. Hope it's worth losing your job over.

The thing is, people like you (and the guy that was sent home at my office) are assh0les in many other ways, too. So, when people like me complain, it's a no-brainer, and they get reprimanded immediately. Generally, nice people don't behave like you.
