    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.

    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 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

    I see this and assume it's fake. Then, my wife starts a job where they make her pay for her own background heck and drug test and tell her she will be charged $250 if she quits without a 2 week notice. How is any of that legal?!

    I'm not disagreeing with you, but they seemed pretty adamant about it. They even said they'd send it to collections.

    I'm in Pennsylvania which is a "right to work" state.

    Once thing is true though, when I'm sick I'm too weak to go the doctor. That shouldn't be a requirement

    If I saw this I would either quit on the spot or call up my union.

    And companies wonder why 'people don't wanna work anymore.....'

    Treating them like this isn't helping their case any.

    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.

    I have (briefly) encountered employers who literally believe the first one, though.

    It's a great way to get your entire workforce sick, that's for sure. That'll certainly keep productivity high, won't it?
