Pro tip: any company that requires you to prove that you are “sick” in order to get a day off is a shitty company. Find another job.

Yea we can call out 8x before getting fired. It doesn't matter the reason. I still have people calling in leaving messages with exaggerated symptoms in their voice and it's like.. Bruh I don't give a shit just don't do it 7 more times so I don't have to fire you.

Just curious, is it 8x for the entire length someone is working there, or just 8x per year or something? Cause it'd seem kinda crazy to fire someone after 8 years for calling in once a year lol. Now that I think about it this is probably a stupid question

What I'm wondering is if being out sick for 2 or more days takes up your other call outs, or if it counts as one.

consecutive days count as 1
