I don’t know your situation so I am not judging you or saying I wouldn’t do the exact same thing and call out sick for all those hours if I was in your position…

80 hours in the last sick year, so 11 months.

I think he just misread what I said. Easy enough mistake to make.

I don't make reading or writing mistakes, though. I went to the Zoolander Center for Kids Who Can't Read Good...

And yes, thank you GG for not flying sick despite harassment from the company. And hope he/she feels better soon.

GFB right now is like hitting the jackpot.

SICK YEAR. I beg to differ

That could be as little as four 4-day trips, with only one day actually sick per trip. Sick on day one for whatever reason, better on day two through four. Thats averaging once per quarter with only four sick days. That is not hard to do. For anyone saying 80 hours of sick usage is a lot, I disagree.

In some BES one sick occurrence could wipe out a 49 hour 6 day trip.
