I just can't believe the average sick days these city workers are taking off. The crazy thing is that they are allowed to take more sick days in a year than I have in the last 12 years!
If I had an employee that averaged 15-20 days a year off sick I would be looking for someone more reliable. Come on Mayor DeCicco, surly you can't support this nonsense in London. Some of these workers should be put into real everyday jobs and see what it's like out there.
These systems have been so abused for way to long and it's time for a positive change. As for the Unions, in time will we all find out that they are doing more damage then good.
Sick days are for days you are sick, not for fishing,drinking,parties and so on. If you are not serious about the job you are doing then leave and let one of the other hundred people who need work do it.
The day will come when people will have to work to keep there jobs, no guardian angles (Unions) to look over them. Employees will need to represent themselves and make the employers want to keep them. Until then, I really hope the city employees look at this as a new start and quit milking the taxpayers.
