[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For the love of god - you are not getting screwed if you do not end up sick!! If your employer wanted you to be able to use the max days they would offer it is PTO nif it is offered as sick then that is very clearly the intention. [/quote] Then just don't ever call it a "perk", ok? You can't have it every which way.[/quote] Why are some of you nannies so thick? Of course sick leave is a benefit or perk. However, utilization of that benefit or perk is subject to a condition--that you are actually unable to work due to illness. It is unethical and irresponsible to use your sick days unless you are sick, and you certainly aren't "getting screwed" for being healthy enough not to need them. If you want the freedom to call out because you need a break here and there apart from your vacations and federal holidays, you need to negotiate unspecified PTO, not a combination of sick leave and vacation leave.[/quote]
