Would that be legal in the US?
Depends on the state
I have to hope that this is a joke sign.
No, I commute to work by ambulance
I think it would be the only reason to make this sign. To be ironic.
Without a legitimate source I find this extremely hard to believe
Thats depressing
And companies wonder why ‘people don’t wanna work anymore…’
Treating them like this isn’t helping their case any.
I doubt it is anything but a joke. It would certainly be illegal where I live.
“No one wants to work anymore”
No one ever wanted to work, but we all do what we have to, to survive. If working as your employee doesn’t allow me to survive, you can get fucked. lol
(Not you as in the person I am replying to but you know)
All things that are illegal in real countries
Once thing is true though, when I’m sick I’m too weak to go the doctor. That shouldn’t be a requirement
Oh damn looks like I got the Two week flu. The phone doctor said the only cure is foreign beach air. Don’t worry though, I’m hating every minute of it and I’ll be back just as soon as I’m well again.
Based on the font of “Company Policies” and the fact that it’s an embossed metal (or shiny plastic) sign, I’m gonna assume this is a gag decoration. However, I wouldn’t be surprised about a company using this as inspiration…
Yeah, this is one of those damn fool things you see hanging in gift shops and other outlets of kitsch, unironically on display as if it’s still clever and nobody’s ever seen it before. Usually right along side the very similar plaque with the “Labor rates: If you watch / If you offer advice / If you help” canard, “Harley Davidson Parking Only,” “Complaint Department, Take a Number (Grenade),” and others of the same ilk.
I’ve seen the “labour rates” one in a few mechanic’s workshops.
Definitely more of a hint than a joke.
Isn’t this just standard US employment terms?
The only problem is generally you can’t count on having Sat/Sun off
Outside of hospitality? Is it that bad in the service industries too?
place i worked at had a 3 month stretch of mandatory overtime, so 6 days of working, then they added in sunday too for a couple weeks. never bothered to show up for any of them then left for a different job
You expect people not to buy goods or expect services on the weekend, their only “free time” to run errands?
I live in a place where many shops are closed on Sundays and have reduced hours on Saturdays. The place where I was born is everything open all the time. It’s a cultural thing, also very dependent on how consumerist the country is
No. Once you get into the more valued labor PTO and respect for time off becomes much easier to find.
What you’re saying is, that you’ll only accept that I’m sick if you genuinely hear absolutely nothing from me because I’m either dead or completely incapacitated, and then only show up later after recovering?
I can work with that.

No you can’t work with that. Its, like, direkty examined in the sign!
/s
Sounds like someone has wasted their generational wealth and is getting desperate.
So anyways, I started re-telling Grimms Fairy tales to my boss at work…
Smoke breaks: smoking will happen during your shift and you will ash your cigs into the fabric scrap bins.
Thank you, Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Management

Only fucking losers refer to themselves as ‘management’
