I can, I just lose my pay
Land of the free baybeeeee
I just don't understand how that helps company revenue when you infect more people?
They assume the lost revenue due to people pretending to be sick is less than the lost revenue due to people actually being sick and trying to work.
Also, management tends to be older people who think working more hours is more betterer. My boss works from 7a-6p with no lunch, 5 days a week. Sometimes he comes in early on top of that.
He's salaried. He isn't making any extra and usually doesn't have anything to do for several hours in the middle of the day. There is literally no reason for it.
Did you met his SO?!
He is unmarried lol.
I'm told he went through a divorce at the beginning of the pandemic though. We briefly discussed making nonessential workers unable to go to work here by law, his idea was to love in the office 3 days a week.
Well they aren’t punishing you, you see. The system is set up to put the power into the hands of the employee. They can make the independent choice of whether to not get paid or to work while sick & risk forcing others into this same choice!
