Why the fuck do Americans think coming into work sick makes you a good employee? All you do is come in and fuck everybody else up

Because if they take any sick days, they get fired. If they take any days off, they can't afford their rent payment. If they ask for a raise, they get fired and replaced with somebody who doesn't make as much.

Which is totally reasonable, since literally any slightest improvement in this system would of course instantly turn Murrica into commies.

While I understand the sentiment does this engineering manager really not get sick time?

But in like the vast majority of cases yea

Our PTO and sick time is combined

And we only get 3 weeks total, for both

Real talk. I used 4 sick days in 8 months and I got an official warning Friday. Little does he know the last 2 sick days were used for the interview for the job i just accepted. I'm just biding my time so that when I quit itll be the first of thr month and I'll get a free month of health insurance. I just sat there and tried not to smirk while I was getting a stern talking to (meanwhile this same manager misses at least 4-5 days a month and is the least professional person I've ever met)

Presenteeism costs companies more than absenteeism, especially when we're white collar workers that can easily work from home.

I actually came into work with pneumonia because fuck spending my hard earned PTO on sick days, and I work with some ancient mother fuckers where if they ended up with a nasty infection of pneumonia it would cripple them.

I don't want to do that to them but I have no choice. I just feel like I work for such a stupid, antiquated company.

Seems a bit extreme. Was this fast food/retail?
