Hey guys, your resident I-banker here! I think I can at least discuss this issue since it isn’t completely medicine related.
I skipped some of the mid messages, but am I missing something else? If you have time off paid / unpaid, FMLA / non FMLA, whatever it is, why are some of you guys so angry when an employee uses it? Sure I feel awkward taking a sick day (especially since all of my sick days just happen to fall on a Monday…), but that isn’t your problem, that is your employer’s problem (now I can understand if you are the employer in this scenario, but then don’t give such flexible arrangements).
