But nobody will know if it's real or not

True. But ive got a solid team in the kitchen so its not something I'd have to worry about. And any way if they want a certain day off i just rejig the roster.

Working from home has replaced the sickie for me.

This. "I'm checking my emails"........."call me if you need anything "

Yeah, after I wake up at 11 lol

Bludger. I get up at 8:59. Get online on the system straight away. Attend to anything urgent (half the time it's not) then back to bed for an hour or two. Then see what I've missed before watching some tv and making some lunch

Assumed it was a given that was what happened the rest of the day after lunch

The key is to send the token email or two first thing in the morning.

I then tell my team that I'm in meetings for a few hours and divert my phone to one of them. Token reply or call back to a few emails later in the afternoon and I'll call it a day.

The best is saying you're working on a file you've already finished but haven't told people you've finished

[Cruyff14]

How do you know how many you have? They normally try and hide that figure.

It's on our system.

11 days annual up my sleeve too.

I've got 36 annual leave days haha. Taking a month off over xmas!

I used to be like Jod about 10 years ago but was shown the light. I'm sure he'll find glory at Glory in the future.

 

[Jatz]

Doesn't everyone get 5 days a year by law?

I know we get 10 days. They just don't like us knowing how many we have because people take sickies if they know for sure they'll get paid.

You could technically work it out but who can be bothered haha

 

[Latro]

I used to go to Glory games back in the NSL days.

I will never give money to Sage though.

He has a glory hole that needs filling.

lol that is nuts.

I have taken I think about 9 or 10 annual days this year.

One sick day only.

Why not?

 

[Latro]

Why not?

The way he has threatened fans in the past with folding the club.

Also have dealt with his companies through work.

Really? We have it in the same place as our total remaining annual leave. Would be helpful to know if you were genuinely ill but had no leave left.

That has happened to me. I am having to use annual leave.

Yeah I had to in February because I hadn't accrued enough sick leave. Only had to use an hour lol.

It's the case for us. Stops people taking sickies when they know they have them. I know several companies that do although also ones that don't haha

Do they keep that close an eye?

My work is casual with that - I work back when necessary but I also get to go to the dentist/mechanic/physio etc and don't lodge any of it.

It's automatic in the system.
