I worked for the same bunch years ago!

how generous

The epidemy of generosity.

You might be pleased to know the investigator from OSHA had a good laugh.

Nice of him.

What a generous boss. NOT!

Sounds like the company I worked for 40 years ago.

“Woo hoo!”

On my last job, I worked 100% remote. (I chose to be paid hourly so I could enjoy non-paid time off). I did work from my hospital bed. I was waiting for an operation much later in the afternoon and had nothing better to do.

All I needed was a laptop and WiFi.

Let’s hope he has some sick leave available.

He’ll expect you all the earlier tomorrow.

I think I worked for that boss once.

I have a message for the boss…..

Gonna have to fight to get workman’s comp.

I was a boss like that. LOL

Without pay, of course!

You can make up the time by coming in Saturday.

typical

Think I actually established a precedent once. As “managers” (we engineers were) we had extensive personal/sick time. Our engineering group had many young guys. More than a few took days off when their wives were in labor. One year I listed the days I took for vacation, and my boss asked me about my absence on two particular days. Those happened to be days that we drove to a distant airport to pick up our foreign-born children that we intended to adopt. When I pointed that out (and the standard practice for biological births), my boss agreed that those were “personal days” and not vacation. Don’t know that it ever applied to anyone else. But I thought that he did the proper thing and applauded him for it.

And the boss says he’s sorry for running you over with the golf cart.

Was his accident job related?

Enjoy your time off.

A prince of a guy.

Ah, yes, the American healthcare system.

Unpaid.

“epitome?”…

The rest of the day off? Wow, that’s a lucky break!
