What's the difference between sick and vacation days? Also federal employees get plenty of days off. This is just more bs
Stupid government. Stop giving me rights!
I love it when people come into work when they have the flu because they dont' want to burn their (sparse, in comparison) vacation days and they're not allowed to be sick. They don't want to also risk losing their job because workers here are really a step above cattle.
Stupid government. I want to work most of my life until I die. I want to get cancer because of a complete lack of regulation and I want to completely overpay for my cable TV and internet! I love it when corporations raw dog me!
If this gets pushed onto the private sector just consider it another shot by the Dems in the war on women. Face it, who takes the most "sick" and personal days? Why hire them if you can help it?
Next up: Women shouldn't get maternity leave.
Just pop the kid out and get right back into work. Maternity leave is such a government socialist bailout liberal communist Obola fallacy. Did I get enough catchwords in there? I have a couple more I was told to parrot.
And you know what makes me sick? People not wanting to work 50 hours a week. They want to spend time with their kids! Bollocks, I say. 40 hour weeks are for the weak socialist government teat spineless liberal communist Europeans. What kind of unemployable idiot wants to raise their kid? Kids are worthless. They can't work, they need stuff. They're just drains on the system.
This is about now. Not building a society for the future. I can't benefit from the future. So I say lets just wreck (*&#@ and burn the future to the ground.
I hate progress and I hate it when people want something. Spineless liberal hippies. Go to Europe, scum.

For nothing, I agree. And if your only working 40 hours per week, I'll take my big mac without pickle.

I also advocate for some baseline of healthcare be extended to people that are otherwise uninsured or have insurance that collects their money and then backs out when they're expected to fit a bill.
Disclaimer: I believe in giving those willing to work the benefits of education, healthcare, etc. Screw the lazies that want to sit at home and live off welfare.
Just my take on it.
Me personally? I'm an engineer and I set my own hours. I get paid by contract so if I only need 4 hours a day to do my job compared to 8 for someone else... my job doesn't care.
They know I spend time on a Friday ****ing around on VolNation. They don't care. So long as the engineering gets engineered, it doesn't matter.
But nice jump in logic. I'm taken care of. I have a great job that guarantees I can spend time with my wife and 4 month old. I get paid quite a bit. I have phenomenal (and expensive, paid mostly by my company) healthcare. I got here by busting my @ss in school and made connections when I was in the military. I fully recognize I'm here on part of my own work and being in the right place at the right time.
However, since I'm not a self-serving and completely selfish prick, I also realize that there are plenty of people that are being screwed. People will get sick. Their kids get sick. If they're sick, they should be able to take off work without their pay being docked and without fear of losing their job or losing their sparse vacation.
I also advocate for some baseline of healthcare be extended to people that are otherwise uninsured or have insurance that collects their money and then backs out when they're expected to fit a bill. Because I realize that I was an unlucky event away from having my current situation be unavailable because I was given a $15,000 hospital bill when I was 20 years old.

So how do you prevent ^ from turning into this:
I agree with you to an extent, but I am tired of paying for octomom and other lazy asses. Cut them off after awhile and let them starve. Sorry, but enough is enough.

I grew up on a dairy farm, there were no such things as sick days, vacation or personal time and that has stuck with me through out my life and probably one of the reasons I am where I am. Able to sit here and argue with you.
If a company wants to expand benefits, offer paid leave or what have you, fine. Government should not mandate it! Fact is women take far more sick and personal time than men, and if it were law that everyone gets 6 weeks of paid leave why would you hire a woman for a critical position?
BTW my son is an industrial or manufacturing (whatever it's called) engineer, he designs assembly lines, tools and work stations. Interesting stuff but still would rather him come work for me, he'd make more money and have actual advancement. He says he couldn't work for me. Go figure?
