    Older Millennial here and because I hang out at websites that Zoomers do, I’ve also started doing this. Y’all have had a major influence on the way I see life, the universe, and everything. I try to keep my sick, PTO, and UPT hours as close to 0 as I can. I call off several times a month and I’ve come into work late every single day for almost a year straight now.

    If you’re going to give me the time, I’m going to use it. Only thing I save up is vacation hours for a yearly trip to wherever.

      come into work late every single day

      That part is questionable, but if you’re just working 10a - 6p, it’s fine. If you’re making another person cover for you until 9:02, it’s absolutely not fine.

        8-5 with unpaid lunch is normal here. 830-45 is “late” even if you work til 530-45. Just my experience

        The company has a backup plan for this (they offer extra shifts to cover tardiness/absences and someone always picks them up), not to mention that we’re overstaffed almost every single day; bottom line is that I’m not worried about it. It’s the company’s responsibility to have enough staff on-hand, not mine.

      In your boat and managed university students. Even millennials are dinosaurs and we all just need to get out of the way.
