[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What would everyone who can't possible take any sick leave do if they were sick with something else?  Wouldn't you have to take an advance, LWOP, vacation?  [/quote]

Honestly, probably apply for for the voluntary leave transfer program, but now the program is going to get flooded with requests.

Also, it’s one thing to use up my leave (or advance leave) for my own and my children’s health. But being essentially forced to use leave because of quarantines in order to save older people seems unfair. Why should I burn up my accrued leave because of a virus that isn’t even likely to harm my family? The older people can use their leave to stay home, they have use or lose any way[/quote]

NP. I had exactly -24 hours left after my second maternity (you have to burn them all before LWOP...). I came to work sick and Dh stayed home with the kids that year. I tried to avoid people and washed my hands a lot. It is what it is. My boss doesn’t allow telework more than 1 day a pay period. I would have loved to have teleworked. One time I threw up at work. Sure I’m evil but I couldn’t afford LWOP with 2 in daycare. I burned through annual leave too. I have some leave now, but not more than a weeks worth. [/quote]
