#sickdays

I also suggest that maybe everyone below grade 8 should simply not work for a week, everyone call in sick a sick out is what is needed to wake them up.

Taking mental sick days is my new norm here. They fu-k with you to the point everything is not okay and I need time to calm my nerves. This is the first time I’ve felt like this in the 19 years I’ve been here.

Does anyone know how many sick days per year employees in the US get ? If unused, do sick days accumulate ? If so, does it accumulate to a max number of days ?

We are human beings, we life and unique situations, not lowly caste workers that are treated like slaves.

4/20 is sick out day because we are tired of being treated like slaves from her caste system.

Making rule changes after we followed her rule, slap in our face. There is no rule because she is always changing the rule

Sick out 4/20
!

They keep selling us on collaboration and team work. Here’s the reality for many of us:

1. Our teams are spread out over many locations. Some of us are now forced to work alone in a small 4x4 cube surrounded by people we dont know or work with at all.

2. Being forced to sit in a small cube constantly distracted by loud employees from other orgs is not collaboration. It's distractive and annoying

3. I waste 15 hours every week driving to a building where the quality of my work is suffering

4. More sick days. I'm constantly surrounded by sick people. I never used my sick time WFH. Now I will use them to their full availability

5. I used to work more than 40 hours WFH because it was convenient and I felt obligated due to being allowed to WFH. That ended with RTO. I'm not going the extra mile any more for a company that treats me like a child and babysitting service, while lying to me about collaboration and RTO

6. I have spoken to so many employees who already have one foot out the door. As soon as the economy switches back to a more friendly employee environment, schwab is going to lose a lot of talent

Nobody likes working for this company anymore. I dont know of a single employee who happy at schwab now. Walt and now Rick have turned this place into a soulless, stale company that only cares about the stock price where the executives get fat stock options and bonuses.

PSA to all the olds who must come in and cough and sneeze in our faces. I know yinz gotta make your days but take a sick day like wtf. Can’t go more than 2 minutes without one of you hacking a lung. Die quieter, thank you for your time

When will the perfect attendance payout take place ? Its usually sometime in march earn a weeks pay for no sick time yeah its a thing

Public sector employees were told on Monday "don't get sick, don't take care giver days, don't take bereavement days, especially don't need surgery that will require an extended absense. Basically just work anyway.". Apparently they need to maximize charging to every contract and any illness by yourself, your family, or even death in the family minimizes the ability to charge a contract. And if you are so sick that you can't come in, were told to work weekends to make up the time. People were given a target of number of hours to charge in the year and it was basically calculated to be the total work hours in a year subtracted by your allotted vacation hours.

Also were told that if you do actually take too many sick days or caregiver days, your manager will be notified because they'll assume you really could have worked anyway.

That's on top of the other things the rest of the company is doing to make time spent in the office horrible (no assigned desks, etc). Apparently HR has no problem with this policy or was too weak to contest it being presented.

Everyone in the company should do a sick call out!! Legally the company cannot make you attend a meeting or perform work( which is what a layoff meeting is) if you are out sick. It doesn’t change the end result— just messes their plans up, and gives you a sense of control in this.

New employyes get how many pto days and sick days???

And what federal holidays do you get off?

Much appreciated!

My friend told me that sick day frequency went way down to almost non existence level. Is this true??

If you were smart you would all use your sick time before November 20th. You wont get paid out sick time if your laid off.. might as well use it. I suspect this is what one of my trainers did. They said he's taking some time away from the business and they don't know when he will be back lol

HR accidentally sent me a layoff notice and try to retracting it they already went to my cell phone. It happens the end of this week and I'm calling in sick with all my sick time and using FMLA.

For people who track this stuff i predict sick time will double or triple. If I have a sick kid I have to pick up and leave the office I’ll just use four hours of sick time. And when I log off I will be done for the day. I’m not going to sit in an office for 5 hours and not have it count as a day back. And if I’m not feeling great instead of working from home I’ll use sick time. I bet lots of people will do the same.

When you are fired or layedoff , TCS will ONLY pay out the vacation days and only because it is required by law in states. Many states have varying laws covering sick days payout, but for the most part you will NOT be payed sick days accumulated.
So, given holidays are near, put in for sick days by saying it is for routine physicals, or planned outpatient procedures and take all your sick days.
You will NOT be payed out any outstanding sick days and are giving TCS a financial gift when they are not payed out.
You have been told, god bless all those that will be affected this massive layoff due to the Trump H1-B $100K per APPLICATION fee..

They have already made these decisions. It doesn’t matter what we do but we can show them how powerful they are if we just don’t show up to Work on the 26th. No call, no text. Just let them know it was a family emergency the next day. Who’s in to show our solidarity with our coworkers? We are the real Edward Jones!

Anyone else being told they need to make up vacation or sick days to meet the 3 days in office mandate? This is opposite of what the guidelines stated when rolling out the HUB.
