Sick day in Utah? Never.

September 13th, 2007, 10:54 am

I heard an interesting comment the other day. I can’t remember who said it but it was about sick days here in Utah. The guy found it weird that when he came to Utah, you are expected to go to work or school even if you are sick but in the rest of the country, people expect you to stay home.

Today a coworker was late. She didn’t call or anything. The art director made the comment that maybe she was feeling sick since she was coughing all day yesterday. He also said that she better come in today because she has things that she needs to finish. This irritated me because she is sick. One, she won’t be as productive as she could because she feels like crap. Two, if she comes into work she is putting the rest of us at risk of getting sick putting us in this cycle.

But this is expected of this art director. I think he has only taken a sick day once in the past year and a half. Whenever I call in sick he still expects me to work. It’s just not right but life isn’t fair …

New Job

September 9th, 2007, 08:11 pm

On Friday I got a job offer. I accepted it. In two weeks I’ll be working at a new place doing the same thing I do now. This new company does the same things as the one I am at now but it is a lot bigger. 40 people instead of 6.

I get paid more and it’s better working conditions. I’m happy and excited! w00t w00t!
