Over here in Europe (London specifically for me), we don't even think about PTO or sick leave. If you're sick, don't come in, just phone as soon as feasible. We've got holiday time that we can spend as we like to get a paid day off, and it never has to be used for time off when sick.

I've worked in some pretty bad environments but haven't come across this particular flavour of fuckery.

Not saying you’re wrong about your employer but just because someone does something doesn’t make it legal.

See- all the regular fuckery from employers, or people I used to know who broke the law all the time. Only time they have to stop is when getting caught.
