I get three days personal, one paid, two unpaid. I used two when I got sick last winter, and one during the summer because of injury. I was late one day when my Cherokee broke down. Was 2 hours late, got a verbal warning for being over my 26 hours, So if I get sick, I don't have much choice but to go to work. You can't use vacation unless they have 24 hours notice, and if there won't be more than 4 people out.
