Hide Ya Wives, Hide Ya Kids: Worldwide Coronavirus Pandemic!

[friscostylez]

Personally, I work for a company that provides unlimited sick days & people still come in to work sick

 

[friscostylez]

So a company doesn't give you sick days but only PTO (which isn't required federally btw) & ones get sick, you will continue to work and possibly get your coworkers sick because you think your company is inconsiderate. Great logic btw.

I know. plenty of ppl do it where I am because there is no paid sick leave, only PTO.

ppl are stressed as it is, why force them to take time they'd use for vacation for sick leave because a company is too stingy to also have sick leave?

lets go further, should companies require parents to use pto instead of granting maternity or paternity leave? these companies will work us to death and we'll let them trying to do whats right for/by these companies that don't care about us one way or the other.

Companies roll up regular leave and sick leave into PTO.

Some companies do not offer maternity/paternity leave.

You sick, take a day off.

Same **** I have said about parents that send their sick kids to school, they aren't thinking about no one else's problems except theirs.

the holiday + the virus jacking my business up. Waiting for production of goods to start in the factories. Was told production would begin last Monday. Checked in last Monday and they said production will start the following Monday (earlier this week). Then this Monday they just said they “guess production will start at the end of this week”.

This is the behind the scenes stuff I try to tell people who carelessly day this isn’t a problem because there are only 15 people infected in the US.
Those numbers In quarantine are huge. 5400 in California and 700+ in Washington?!
If even only a small percentage of those people test positive imagine how many they came in contact with.
And aren’t there cases in China of transmissions within a housing complex? So how does self quarantining at home or in a dorm room help?

 

[debso]

Lol if a company doesn't provide sick days but rather PTO, that means your sick days are included in your PTO.

Your point about maternity leave is dumb btw

I know what it is. I just told you that I work for a company with no sick days...only PTO.
Which breeds the mentality you're talking about.

And my analogy isn't dumb. Your opinion is dumb. You cant make it make sense which is why I shut that **** down in a previous post.

So a company doesn't give you sick days but only PTO (which isn't required federally btw) & ones get sick, you will continue to work and possibly get your coworkers sick because you think your company is inconsiderate. Great logic btw.

I never said that that's what I do. I said that's what ppl do and it is. me, i'm on some other ****. my body is there but my mind is far. my personal goal is to work for myself. i'm off this corporate ****. i've accomplished what i wanted to out of it. i don't want to be controlled and i'm talented enough to profit off of things i create.

But yes, those type of companies dont give a **** and once ppl get in that groove they no longer give a **** either.

Companies roll up regular leave and sick leave into PTO.

right. again, i work for a company that does this.

Some companies do not offer maternity/paternity leave.

right. and those companies typically aren't considered desirable to work for specifically because of **** like that (but i wouldn't be surprised if some of those companies are also the same as those that have no sick time)

You sick, take a day off.

Same **** I have said about parents that send their sick kids to school, they aren't thinking about no one else's problems except theirs.

so lets try this for a sec.

you're a single parent and can barely afford to keep your lights on, pay the rent, gas, food, etc.
your kid gets sick and you have no support. your job is like the one above with no sick time and you don't get much pto. maybe you've already used the pto.
in other words, you have nobody to watch your child. then what?

rather than call ppl inconsiderate, many of you need to put that energy towards the powers that be that make certain situations so in the first place.
but you won't. you're conditioned to blame the have nots and side with the haves and try to **** on anyone that thinks differently then you do. its the way our society works.

anyway i'm done. i said what i said and i stand by it.
