Use Sick Leave -- Lose Your Job
Bill Harrison was fired yesterday for using sick leave under FMLA. Alex Chrisolis (sorry if I mangled your name) is under investigation for using one day of sick leave on the front end of his vacation.
By contract, union employees may use three sick days per year without a doctor's note. That is not stopping Tucker (with an F) from firing them.
Beware! It may be better to simply take a missout than to book off sick for one day.
The union will probably be able to get your job back later, but they no longer fight to get back wages owed you for wrongful termination. It seems that since Bill McKlean left, so did the union's backbone.
