  • This is so weard... I could't imagine someone with a steady jod not getting paid from sick days. That would be impossible here in Finland. Here the minimum is 9 fully paid sick days per disease. I'm not sure how many days is it per year.

    Though even that doesn't stop some of those everyday "heroes" from coming work sick and spreading infectious diseases around...

  • CNN, CBS, ABC and MSMBC need to stop flying the American Flag as a back drop and start displaying the Hammer and Sickle instead.

  • A certain number of paid sick days per year is ok, but I think it shouldn't be more than 3-5 days, after that the employee should cut into his own vacation.

  • American politics = The all mighty dollar

  • If you're diagnosed with H1N1 you should be able to take the whole year off. That way at least catching it wouldn't be a total loss.
