If its use it or lose it, than you save it until you need it and then strategically burn it off in the months leading up little by little to make sure you aren't left holding a giant bunch you cannot possible use. Its a pretty simple system anyone who worked at such a company figured out after a year.

Yes its a shitty company, not all of us just walked out of the house and got a job somewhere bitchin' and awesome. We all had to start somewhere. And at those jobs, you know you are replaceable from day one and you make sure to prioritize yourself and maximizing it above the company.

I'm sorry I ruined your high horse by showing you that your experience is not universal, try not to let it get you so mad.

Close: sad not mad. You guys are acting like it's normal and right to have to pretend to be sick to get a paid day off you already earned or else lose it.

It's kind of pathetic really to accept that as the way it is or should be.

I didn't say it was right, I said it happened. And it is the way it is because these are jobs for retarded teenagers, single moms, and Mexicans. Entry level slop where you must be a replaceable cog because that's how fucking entry level works.

Again, I'm sorry I ruined your high horse by reminding you the world exists outside your little bubble. You don't need to get pissy about downvotes and try to act cool and above everyone over it.

Again, sad. Apparently a huge portion of this forum has only part time work or is Mexican.

Or maybe, and this might shake your world, we were teenagers once. And we worked at entry level jobs like we were suggested to by the adults in our lives.

Shocking, I know!

I can only apologize so many times about getting you downvoted. I shouldn't have set you up to reveal that you are retarded.

It’s part of your compensation. That’s the part you’re not getting.

You don’t take them (for whatever reason) you get burnt out and leave. If you don’t let your subordinates use them, or pry them, they will resent you and leave. If your equals get mad because they get a ton of work dumped on them, then your all in a bad job and should leave.

"But muh mental health days". Wow grow up "man". Sick days are for when you're sick not for crying into your pillow.
