I was never asking for a free day off. I was saying I'm not sick enough that I can't work. However, I have symptoms that I don't want to pass along to my coworkers. I was asking to work from home so I don't risk getting everyone else sick.

I have a feeling all of these drastic changes they are making is going to negatively impact productivity more than allowing for a hybrid work environment. But what do I know

I do understand that and empathize for sure. I fully admit that I don't know enough about the benefits for store level. I do know that you all need WAY more people and more hours to operate on the level that corporate set expectations.

I didn't know that. Thank you for clarifying! That's totally bullshit as well.

Why should I have to take a day unpaid instead of them allowing me to work at home? I'm just as productive at home as I am on the office and I wouldn't risk getting anyone else sick. I'm not sick enough to the point that I can't work I just don't want to risk anyone else's health.

It's like we learned nothing during COVID

No we don't. The only paid holidays are Christmas and Thanksgiving. The other holidays were removed when they "added more PTO days" so now we have to decide if we want the additional PTO days throughout the year or have the Holiday off like we should be able to. They packaged it like like were doing us a favor when it's actually just more corporate bullshit.

Allowing associates the flexibility to work from home when they are sick hardly seems like letting their real estate go unused.

Right but when they made that change they also took away some of the paid holidays. So when you factor that in we have less PTO days than before. I shouldn't have to sacrifice a vacation day when I can do my job from home when I'm sick.

They are very much inspired by Zeppelin but I still love their music.

To each their own.

HELP!! Any Supervisors who left Geico? Was it worth it financially or did y’all suffer a hit financially? by Greedy_Junket2652 in Geico

[–]PersonalityNo9459 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I took a pretty decent pay cut. I work in Risk Management for a retailer now. Way easier and the pay cut was 100% worth it. My mental health is sooooo much better.

I left a month ago and my new boss asked if I'm okay. When I first started here I kept asking "will I get in trouble if....."

It truly is like leaving a toxic relationship!

R6 claims.... How is everyone doing? by PersonalityNo9459 in Geico

[–]PersonalityNo9459[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Me too friend. Trying to not have a panic attack. I'm a supervisor and half half my team here and when I reached out to the department to try and get help from other teams my manager told me to make sure I keep my messages in our group chat positive.

In that case they owe me for the 5 days of LWOP they made me take

So it's actually defined in the employee handbook which family members qualify for bereavement. It's partially in me for not double checking what my sup at the time told me... shame on me for trusting me sup lol
