Irony

To anyone who actually reads this blog: Sorry for not blogging more frequently. I really haven't had anything worth writing about. Which brings me to my new point.

Why are the spirits of business policies routinely betrayed by people in the business? For example: sick leave and education reimbursement policies were developed to recognize people needing time off for sickness and to attract and retain good talent.

Unfortunately, a LOT of places look down on you, or worse, if you use your sick leave. This helps lead to people coming in to work sick and gets more people sick.

Now onto education, and the germ of this little post. What's the point of education reimbursement if management won't support you time needs, or won't even hire you because of your school needs? It is incredibly vexing.
