Thinks s/he gets paid by the post
Great posts and discussion. I also agree that there is no such thing as company loyalty anymore. The statement that every two weeks they even the balance is so true. It is just a numbers game, nothing more, and every two weeks the game starts over.
I may have slightly rose colored glasses, but I think that some companies still do value their employees, unfortunately these are few and far between. Anymore the megacorps are so scared of lawsuits and showing any type of consideration for an employee that they have become a distant non-caring mgmt. Smaller companies seem to treat employees better, although soon as a buyout or takeover happens, the small employees are left out in the cold.
OP Ray, do not feel bad about taking all of the sick time you are needing. It is a benefit and you should take advantage of it, you certainly have valid reason.
