I used paid sick days as just unwind days. And one time, I took two such “sick” days in a row! Almost got fired because my boss suspected I wasn’t actually sick because I came back in such a bright, chipper disposition. What idiotic nonsense. It’s not like they paid a pension for loyalty.
In CA programmers became hourly employees a few years before I retired. I remember my boss making an apologetic announcement. I barely stopped myself from cheering. I was thinking, “Overtime!”

I like the way the sign changes. It kinda reflects how I felt about my last job.

When I worked in a grocery store, I had a supervisor say that we were lucky were hourly because he was salaried and they owned him!

I’m taking what they’re giving, because I’m working for a living.
