Yeah, at least trim it down. Beards are getting more accepted at offices. On 8/19/2017 at 8:22 AM, bucsfan333 said: I always use my sick days as extra vacation that can't be denied. Me too. We just have a call-in System where I work and it makes it so much easier. 22 hours ago, bigjohnson2009 said: I would prefer to use my sicks days no matter what - I get 6 and they are not paid out or carried over. The only problem is I work at a small firm, I can't really discretely call in sick for no reason. Everyone knows everyone. Agreed with using them. Even if you work at a small firm, unless they make you have a doctor's note, just call in and do your thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heimdallr Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 If you are at an airport, put your wallet, belt, etc. In your bag before getting to security. Only carry your ID and phone/ticket. Put those in your bag as soon as you get checked through too. Have your laptop/tablet in an easily accessable pocket, and wear slip-on shoes. Basically be prepared, not a moron.

That way I'm covered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As soon as I'm done with checkpoints, I take em out. If I have to be dressed up (usually have a meeting shortly after landing) belt is in bag as well.

IF you're talking about an entry-level job, just apply. They probably will ask about your time off, and you can explain your situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DontTazeMeBro Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 2 hours ago, Tyty said: How do I get a job after being off 4 years from leukemia Are you worried about the gap in employment history? If so it shouldn't be a problem. As far as reasons for being out of work go, that's a pretty good one. And the economy is awesome right now. If where you are is anywhere like here, basically anyone who wants a job right now can get one. If you can drive, have a car that's not too old, and don't want to go through an exhausting hiring process, driving for Uber is really cool. Congrats on getting back into the work force. Hope that means you're doing better. If so, that's awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
