sweetleftpeg 0 Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 I was going to take my first one in a long time today. Got a throat infection and lost my voice, currently communicating with my co-workers by post-its. Wankers are taking the piss, so I'm going home in a minute. Mongs.

Dr Kenneth Noisewater 0 Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 Depends where you work. If is a big operation with lots of staff to cover your absence I wouldn't feel too bad about it. If it's a small independently run place where your colleagues will be rushed, stressed and harassed in covering for you, you should be ashamed.

Gemmill 47147 Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 Sick days can and should be used as a supplement to annual leave where you feel your annual leave is inadequate. No guilt is necessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well my annual leave is definitely inadequate... How inadequate? Well I'm entitled to 27 days + bank holidays etc. But in reality, the last day off I had outside of the normal holidays (christmas, new year etc) was last year during the world cup!

Gemmill 47147 Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 Whaaaaaat? 58 days?! The Dutch people that work for my company get 50 days I think (it's a Dutch company). The plebs that they have working for them in other countries get half that though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats the beauty of working "continental" shifts, 12hr days, 12hr nights, weekends, bank holidays, often doing 50hrs+ a week, they do "reward" me with some time off, and by then I fucking need it.
