Guys. Most of you are missing my point. If the company feels that there is a sick leave abuse issue fine. It is up to them to provide the EVIDENCE!
Not some data about seasonal spikes. Not the company getting pizzed about Joe Pilot calling in sick after his vacation. Not even Joe Pilot calling in sick every first Monday in the month.
That is not evidence. If the company thinks that guys are calling is sick when they are not sick? I say, PROVE IT!
Why do we want to even consider helping them when they can not provide any real evidence? The onus is on them.
Next!
