pinterest monday november 07 2011 is your chronically ill coworker just gaming the system dear evil hr lady due to your advice i landed a great job about a year ago there is only one problem i work for a small department and we have a coworker jim who is a very nice guy with a serious absentee problem for example this year to date he has called in sick 32 times we have a shared calendar where we track sick days vacation events etc in addition to calling in sick he is habitually late and during winter he frequently calls in on snowy days and says he can t make it in we have another staff member who lives in the same area who has no trouble last week during a rainy morning he called to say that he was stuck in traffic so he was going to go back home and wait and try to come in again around 10 or 10 30 he was due in at 8 30 this is not the first time he has done this he has also been caught sleeping in his office multiple times he is eligible for the family and medical leave act fmla because he has irritable bowl syndrome ibs this affects me because jim is supposed to work the closing shift with me when he is gone i am left alone and have to do all the closing duties our current manager says that nothing can be done because of fmla we re in the process of hiring a new director first does this seem like a legitimate fmla situation second when the new director gets hired should we say something to him her about this situation or just let them see if for themselves we don t want to come off as complainers but this is bothering us all with such a small staff anytime one of us has to take a vacation or sick day it s always in the back of our minds what if jim calls in too to read click here is your chronically ill coworker just gaming the system posted by

still can t get hired dear evil hr lady thanks for your columns they greatly demystify the world of hr i left a job eight months ago because i was being bullied ever since i have been looking for work i have applied everywhere including fast food restaurants i have experience in a lot of areas with engineering being the most current area that i am studying i have more than ten years experience in clerical work and even three years in science laboratory work i complete the ms in engineering this upcoming spring nevertheless my problem is not solved i don t have a job i have obtained several interviews that often appeared to have worked well only to receive notice that the position has been cancelled or a candidate with more experience has been selected however in many of these cases i personally knew the applicant that was selected and usually it is someone who has just graduate high school or college with no experience and no internships in the field in terms of fast food positions students with no high school diploma have been chosen over me and i have some experience in the fast food industry and i have taken some college level nutrition courses as well i m not complaining because i understand that the economy is rough i am only trying to figure out the reason that i appear to be so unmarketable to employers in addition because i often hear that it is not what you know but who you know i have tried networking however i have been unsuccessful in this area as well many of the people that i have worked with in the past have seemingly genuinely offered me their help to find positions yet when i write to these people or call them they seem rude and disillusioned thus they offer no help many of these are people that i talked to quite often while i was employed but now it appears that they do not want to be involved with me at all i don t think that i am rubbing them the wrong way because i am very soft spoken and polite and i have been told this by many people for most of my life furthermore this is the only time in my life in which i have been treated in this manner by so many people i have tried everything that i can possible concoct to obtain employment i have applied to every position that i can possibly imagine i have even applied to clean the restrooms at local businesses and i was rejected to read the answer click here i have applied

beautiful baby boy i went back to work feb 1st of this year as a part time employee i am nursing and pump once daily at work prior to leaving on maternity leave i informed my employer that i would be returning in feb as a part time employee and would need a place to pump the place was provided and a time was agreed by both of us lately the hours that are busiest have changed and we have lost a few employees are now understaffed my employer wants me to change my hours to coincide with the busiest time of day unfortunately i have no child care for those hours and she has given me 2 weeks to find someone to care for him if i cannot work those hours then she wants me to resign on top of changing my hours she is just now deciding to take my health benefits away announced that she was only doing me a courtesy to let me keep it up to this point and she is not allowing me to pump anymore after my hours change since it would seriously disrupt the operations of the employer which is a way of not allowing me to pump through california labor code 1032 she has publicly informed me of the issues she has with me in front of coworkers and even stated that i was taking advantage of her nice actions she has issues with me pumping and still needing time in the work day to eat eating while working had never been an issue at our office she prefers this so no one clocks out until i change my hours i have agreed to clock out for pumping sessions and not eat at all for the 5 hours i work mon fri she has been asking me to fix other issues at work and i am feeling harassed she has sent me e mails texts spoken to me in person about different issues i feel like i am walking on egg shells everyday and am just overall uncomfortable with her around unfortunately we are a small medical practice with only 5 employees total and she is the only doctor owner so i deal with her daily she has a history of verbally attacking employees and constantly breathing down their backs ive seen it happen to others have been a victim before i don t know what to do except try my best to work with her requests but i want to know my rights so i can stand up to her with concrete facts help please to read the
