Well yeah, I don’t have a life outside of work lol
I have to beg and plead my mom to take her vacation days or stay home when sick. I’m so glad I don’t have the self-destructive American work ethic older generations seem to have.
Well when those days are also your “sick days” you tend to want to hold on to them. My manager is out sick with COVID for like the 4th or 5th time. In Summer.
Iv just have them add my PTO to my paycheck and burn it up. Why save it for a sick day, money is money no matter when you get it
Americans don’t believe themselves to be temporarily embarrassed millionaires. They believe themselves to be temporarily embarrassed slave owners.
How much is it a factor that America has at will employment where the employer can fire the worker for arbitrary reasons like taking all of their leave?
Not from a left perspective. But I meant it more like, they don’t even care about being millionaire, so long as they have their slave to boss around. It also has some vibes of how people always imagine going a knight or noble in the past and never a serf full of worms shitting their guts out in the barley fields.
Is that counting federal holidays
