I know my dad's employers have a certain amount of sick time and if you don't take it, then it rolls over to the next year. My dad has been working at his job for 17 years and can retire once he works there for 20 years and turns 50 (which means he'll have to work more than 20 years). However, my dad has only called in sick once b/c I had a severe case of pneumonia. His plan is to gather enough sick leaves to where he can take the whole year off before he retires and get paid for it. He'll have to work at least a week during that year to show that he hasn't quit, but it's still a sweet deal.
I have a couple of friends that work at a big chain store similar to Wal-Mart and their bosses require all absences to have a note from a doctor. If you take off a certain number of days w/o one then you're fired. There are a few exceptions, but this is a strict firm.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
