Sick leave is completely arbitrary. (One hopes that the rare company that says it will pay something for unused sick leave, will actually follow through...)
What used to be known as "vacation pay" has to be paid out if it isn't used in the required timeframe. It seems depressingly likely that the places where it was "reset" before you used it (?!?) used different terminology.
Well, yes, sick days certainly "expire" - to be replaced by another year's worth. Paid vacation days are a different matter, since you gave the company more work than was bargained for. That's where a union comes in handy.
And by the way, the boss knows who's got good attendance, and who's been out "sick" exactly 12 Mondays a year, every goddam year since the day they were hired. As one manager put it, it's the best measure of "attitude" he knows of.
But on the brighter side of Walmart, you can purchase the exact same gun that was used in the latest massacre. I'm surprised they haven't used that as a promo in any of their Christmas ads.
<i>&lsquo;Let us remind you of all that Walmart offers, and of what might go away. Quarterly bonuses might go away, vacation time might go away.&rsquo;</i>
Is this person not aware of how negotiations work? If Walmart unionized, those items would probably be first on a list of things that they wanted included in their contract.
True &quot;vacation&quot; pay that has been earned cannot be retracted.
There&#039;s probably a couple dozen lawyers crafting language that makes this &quot;benefit&quot; different. And conditional.
&quot;Might&quot; is the key word here.
Fun fact - employers in Florida are not required to give employees an <i>unpaid</i> lunch break. So that might go away too.

Nasty habits, we hates them...
