This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

If you're sick with something that's non-transmissible, then it's on you to decide if you want to go to work or not.

If you're sick with something contagious, then I don't care who you are, you're a horrible excuse for a human being if you go to work.

US Federal law does not require sick leave.

Some people need the money.

As someone that has to go into work sick all the time, God I wish sick pay was required. I wanna be a decent person and try not to get people sick. But at the same time I live paycheck to paycheck and if I miss too much work oops now I'm fucked.
