Allow me to rephrase that: Good luck getting scores of citizens to go downtown and pack a room for jury selection while there’s a pandemic in the air.

Wow. I thought I had a pessimistic take on how long the panic would last. But even I don't think it would last the 5 years or so it would take before something like this gets in front of a jury. The updated regulations would be, what, another 8 years after that?

People that use sick days as hangover recovery days often go to work when they're actually sick because of a 'I may as well go to work and get paid to suffer through this mild cold and save my sick time so I can go party' attitude and make the entire office sick. Use your sick days for being sick not to extend your weekend booze up.

There are a lot of jobs and people where showing up to work hungover or tired is quite dangerous. In my job the risk is that I delete a file that maybe should have gone onto tape. Or maybe my algorithm is a bit sub-par. But still the risk exists. Let the idiots have their sick day. Better to sleep and stink at home than next to me. Edit: I recently read a study on the impact of lack of sleep on work performance but I can't even remember the title because I'm tired, just proving that performance does decrease to dangerous levels when you should be at home napping but instead you're sitting in front of a computer.

those are facts though, I wanted to understand what's happening and share sentiments I heard from friends who actually lived or grew up in Xinjiang. How can you think my saying that .5% of chinese people live there but they make up 22% of the prison population as anything but condemnation? I still think it was a de facto racist policy and ethnic cleansing but I felt the framing in western media was inaccurate. Are you from Xinjiang?

There is no excuse for thinking or arguing this dumb poo poo.

lol if you posted:it has happened at least once, very famously and tragically. (don't!) google Omayra Sánchez Garzón for some pictures that will gently caress up your day big time There was a very famous episode of the police procedural Homicide that involved a guy crushed between a subway and the platform. He was currently alive but going to die as soon as they moved him. It was just TV, though a lot of people saw it and probably internalized that it was a thing that could happen. In real life a guy did get penned between the subway and the platform just like in the show, and it mushed up his guts so bad he sued and was awarded $10 million, but he didn't die as soon as they moved him/the train. https://nypost.com/2016/10/27/man-awarded-10m-for-being-nearly-crushed-to-death-on-subway-platform/

Eh if it's once or twice a year, sure, sometimes things come up. But if it's happening once a month that's really just being an rear end in a top hat. Stop getting trashed or staying up late on Sunday nights if you know you need to be functional by 9 am Monday morning. That's a choice. And if you're going to work sick so you can bank your sick days for routine "Monday Morning Flu" days, then you're a mega rear end in a top hat and an enemy of the people.

The two who abused it at my workplace did it multiple times a month. It was completely blatant what they were doing. Not sure if they worked sick, but we had relatively lenient sick days (no unlimited sick pay, but you had to basically disappear for multiple days or in a really important time to actually get questioned) so they were just working less than 40 hours a week a lot of the time.

No, you don't get to judge how people spend their sick days based on some misguided paternalistic notion they will 'misspend' them in the future. If people are coming in sick, that is a separate issue to be dealt with if and when it occurs - don't deny people sick days based on the assumption it will automatically happen. Jfc I am a manager and this type of management is the worst, don't you people read AskAManager?

Would you prefer that they go to work and perform in a subpar manner because they feel like poo poo? Like, say, if they're operating heavy machinery and someone's life (or multiple lives) could very well be on the line?
