To think that DAL is any different would be incredulous...

Good faith or not it's really easy and the company is required to pay for it. No respectable healthcare business will deny you a sick note. Though each instance when under 100 hrs in a rolling year should be reported to the union. As it can be considered intimidation and especially while negotiating a breach of stats quoe.

If I had to guess it's a directive from someone either on 4th floor or the RD, no way to know...

I hope you forwarded that VM to your reps!
