Yeah, ChaosBoy is out of the office today, but that doesn't mean I have the leisure to be planning the next 30 years in the lives of imaginary characters, now does it? Tell the fictional world to leave me alone while I'm at work.

In other news, I was scrounging around for a copy of the company holiday calendar since no one ever remembers what days this place was closed last year.

I finally found it and read the holidays, vacation, and sick leave policies for this particular sister company and whoa! Couldn't be more different than Buehler's tolerant attitude toward such tings.

I don't think I've ever seen such a set of stingy, hostile policies.

In fact, had I read this before I signed on here, I'm not sure I'd have signed on here. Unless practically every employee he's ever had has abused the living heck out of the sick leave policy, I'm not sure there's really any excuse for so much hostility.

Me, I've never abused a company's sick-leave policy in my life, but after reading this one, I seem to have a really strong urge to do so.
