About 10 notes in the past 3 or so years. Every time I have called sick! Only 1 on a holiday. I guess I am in the matrix.

BWP,
My experience with Harvey Watt closely mirrored your experience. Every situation is different and the experience therefore, will be somewhat different. Your experience with how the union handled it was different than mine, but your experience doesn't surprise me at all (based on others I have spoken with).

MM,
You stated, "#2. Concerning BWP's Contract Section 15.D discussion ... I'm not sure anything he said was correct?" Likewise, you are not sure anything he said was incorrect. I think you owe him an apology.

Maybe we're forgetful from lack of sleep?

How many times did you call in sick to generate the 10 requests for notes? Was it every time? 10 notes out of 50 calls? 70 calls? Just curious.

Not speaking for him, but the way I read it was every time he called in sick, they wanted a note...10 notes for 10 calls.

My doctor must have seen this scenario before ...

Whenever I would ask him for a note for work he would write on a prescription pad, "Mayday Mark was seen on July 29, 1016. Should be OK to return to work after September 15th" (6 weeks in the future!).

If Management wants a childish doctors note, why not turn it into 6 weeks of sick leave? After all ... you wouldn't want me to get all of the other kids sick would you?

It's disappointing that their treating professionals this way :-(

This is HILARIOUS! I'm going to ask my Doctor to do the same.
