You can't stay at home when you're sick?
Murica bby
I mean depends on the job, but won't they even allow Homeoffice then?
They're pretty clearly wage slave posting bro. Most positions like that will be hourly and dependant on being in a store or factory/warehouse.
Who says you can't be a wageslave in the Homeoffice too? Remember those Wow gold miners? :D
I can, I just lose my pay
Land of the free baybeeeee
I just don't understand how that helps company revenue when you infect more people?
They assume the lost revenue due to people pretending to be sick is less than the lost revenue due to people actually being sick and trying to work.
Also, management tends to be older people who think working more hours is more betterer. My boss works from 7a-6p with no lunch, 5 days a week. Sometimes he comes in early on top of that.
He's salaried. He isn't making any extra and usually doesn't have anything to do for several hours in the middle of the day. There is literally no reason for it.
Did you met his SO?!
He is unmarried lol.
I'm told he went through a divorce at the beginning of the pandemic though. We briefly discussed making nonessential workers unable to go to work here by law, his idea was to love in the office 3 days a week.
Well they aren’t punishing you, you see. The system is set up to put the power into the hands of the employee. They can make the independent choice of whether to not get paid or to work while sick & risk forcing others into this same choice!

Wasn't till recently that I got a job with sick days. I'm in Canada too, so you'd think we'd have it better but we don't. Many jobs, they won't fire you for staying home when you're sick, but they won't pay you either, and to most people, losing even a day's pay is unaffordable.
Sick days? What is this lol. Did they even do this during Covid?
Yep. And they will do it during the next pandemic as well
If you are lucky like me, home is the office. But you also get to work sick days too :(
