    This is some late stage capitalism shit. Oh how generous we are, we allow you to be sick up to 5 days a year.

    In my job in Europe, I get unlimited sick days as anyone should. If it’s long term, after the first year out, my salary drops from 100% to 70% for another year. Then the government takes over. And no, people do not abuse this system.

    Also, obviously this is separate from my 30 days PTO.

    The US needs to wake up!

      I was sick pretty bad at the beginning of the year. Out a week and some days and all my sick days were used with half of my PTO. All because I got sick at the fucking work place.
