People call in sick for all kinds of reasons. Some legit, some perhaps not. Don’t abuse the system and you would be fine. Call in sick on your birthday and you will probably garner the attention of managment.
If you are sick, call in, if not do so at your own risk and if you get busted the company is in their right to punish you.

I mean I figure it’s not that easy. But I would just assume hey, if you really needed one day off a year that was important you just call in sick right? I’m not talking holidays as I get holidays you’ll be working. But say your kids birthday is the one even you ever want to miss, why not just call in sick? Like I said not a pilot, and haven’t even started any type of training so really know nothing other than what I read here, but does what I’m saying never occur?

Not a new hire, heck don’t even have any hours. Just curious how the industry works in general regarding calling in sick etc compared to a corporate job that allows you vacation time you can put in for and not get bumped off of.

What are you saying? Some corporate company that you may have heard about will take your vacation away from you after you've already planned it?

The whole atmosphere here is different. In the corporate world you are on the same team as your employer. Your success is their success. Here you are the enemy, and if you feel like a winner it means the company gave up too much on the latest LOA.

Sad but depressingly true.

Envoy is the most hostile work environment in the airline business.
