"Make sure you take a day off when sick"

"Does that mean we get sick days?"

"No, that's what vacation days are for."

"What if I don't have any vacation days?"

"Ask your co-workers to donate theirs!"

Two jobs ago, I worked at a place that did exactly this...while also being fantastically stingy with PTO (I think I got 8 days per year, total, use it or lose it).

Anytime I got sick, I still came in. Don't want me to spread the plague in the office? Give me sick days.
