Just got a really good job where they don’t have sick days but instead you can just call out sick whenever “on the honor system.” I want to take advantage of this but also don’t want to do it in a way that’s excessive or draws attention. So how many times would you say you call out sick per year/what seems like a believable amount of times to get sick?
4 or 5 times last year, almost all of them because I went to a concert the night before and stayed out too late. I’m currently sitting on about 70 hours of available paid sick time after about 14 months of working there. It doesn’t fuck over anyone else working because we have multiple ppl waiting in the office on standby ready to pick up routes when needed. Union paratransit bus driver job.
