There’s defined operrunity for issues and I can see where they would come with conflicting personalities etc but so far at least it hasn’t come.
There is some wiggle room in the limits to deal with that which is used for emergency and sickness that I can lean on.
The way I see it, my job is to keep everyone as happy as possible while ensuring the work gets done. An no were not a family. I hate that shit were all here for the same reason. Pay me.
That last sentence is important. At my workplace they still treat company loyalty as currency, and taking time off is showing disloyalty.
Although its a choice to subscribe to that, I just take my days of whether they will approve them or not, and they have yet to challenge me on it. I can use sick time laws if I have to, but I don’t like having to deal with deception and I also don’t like that other people I work with aren’t aware of the deception.
Will be finding new employment soon, its been a sharp cliff dive this year.
Yeh fuck all that shit. I’m loyal yo the company in so far as they haven’t pissed me off enough to get over the inertia of looking for a new one. I think it helps I get on really well with all the adjacent teams and managers…
I will admit 1 thing though I never sought out this job I was just an engineer in the team I now manage. I was offered it when my former boss was promoted. The reason I said yes was the fear of some unknown bellend getting parachuted in and fucking everything up
As a result I know the pain points of the job and do my best to alleviate them while playing interference where appropriate from the higher ups.
Regarding sick time I genuinely don’t care as long as its done within the law. The company at large deals with this direct via hr who will flat out juts go around the reporting manager without speaking to them. I do not know ehat triggers this. Probably so reporting managers can’t forewarn staff how yo game it.
The more I see on American (I’m asuming) work culture the more it tetefies me
