Coronavirus - Take two - Action!

[Schmoe1]

Made the mistake of trying to do the right thing, called into work saying I was sick, probably a sinus infection.  They told me I needed to be seen by a doctor, so I go, and he says i have enough symptoms to warrant getting tested.

Couldn't get tested until 2 days later because a storm rolled through on Tuesday, now I'm waiting for results still.

A week of work missed, and my favorite part?  If the test comes back negative, I have to use my own vacation time!  What a fucking joke, next time I'll just go to work and act fine, because next time I'll be all out of vacation pay.

WOW, Sorry to hear they want to Treat You So badly, I'm hoping you're OK but you do have a Sinus Infection and you're work covers your sick days.

At my job, we get one sick day.  One.  Plus one personal day.  Plus whatever vacation time you've accrued.  I have about 2 1/2 weeks.  My company is really great with some things, and complete shit with others.

America seems to be behind the ball compared to other nations regarding time off, especially places like Sweden.
