That's really fucking good
I never got limiting sick days. I don’t choose to be ill.
It's to punish/exclude people with chronic illness, i can't see any other reason
They don't trust workers not to fake it.
I kinda lucked out with my career choice and the time I started. I work for an unspecified airline and bid for a monthly schedule. Average 15-20 days off a month (not consecutively). Not out of the goodness of their corporate hearts of course. Legally I can only work 1000 hours in a year, and 100 hours in a month. The FAA has determined that exceeding those hours is detrimental to one’s mental wellbeing.
Unpaid vacation is fairly simple, just drop/trade shifts till you something that works. Can’t get too into detail about how paid vacation works for opsec reasons since the union bargaining agreements are easily searchable, but I can get about 20 paid days a year. So I get a month off a year with most of it paid.
