Just made me check mine. I’m in a good union and earn 2.46 hours of sick per 40 hours of work and 3.28 hours of leave per 40 hours of work. A year of work is 2498 hours for us for reference.
I also get 48 hours of other leave, 16 hours of leave per each of 13 holidays, and I can take my overtime as 1.5 hours of leave per hour worked instead of pay. We also get 240 hours parental leave for a new child.
Leave accrues whenever we are in a paid status on straight time.
At my previous job I did hospital triage. Once a guy walked up to me and said “My wife isn’t doing well, I think she’s dead”. He told me she had been sick for several days and when she started doing really badly he had to get his neighbor to help carry her to the car. He said he didn’t want to bother the fire department.
He had driven from his home on the eastern fucking shore of Maryland to DC. 100+ miles. Told me he was going to be staying at his house in Maryland because he didn’t like his house in DC. She came out of the passenger seat and stayed in a seated position and we put her in an unstaffed room.
Show the cow a fire and bring it to the table.
Lithobreaking maneuver.
I think this is the longest running battle in the history of warfare at this point.
