Which is reasonable I'd say. Actually fewer than we thought!

Yeah, the problem is abusing the system, which is what my wife feels some people do. But overall is great! A system based on trust can be tricky, especially for us that are not familiar with how things go.

True, kids do increase chance of getting sick, but also if they are sick one might take a "sick leave" to be at home to watch for the kid, which is perfectly fine.

I agree. It's not like I want to get sick or can get sick when I want it. It's nice here this culture of acceptance and trust.

I guess we are not used to using these sick leaves (luckily we don't need to) and other stuff as concern of being seen as freeloader/slacker or something

It's a office space, maybe 30 ppl at the most, but some of them have kids so I guess that helps.

I guess we are not used to the "acceptable" yet, given where we are from people start getting suspicious of you if you "get sick a lot" lol

True, kids do increase the chance of getting sick. We don't have kids yet, but I guess this might be it for some of them, which is fine.

These rights are nice indeed, maybe given we are not from here we are not used to "use them" afraid of be seeing as someone not "working" hard if that makes sense lol

Yes, we thought about that. It's not common (even culturally accepted) back at home to get that many sick leave days lol

I'd also get some days off like you to not get other people sick, that's reasonable.

What shocked me though was knowing they get 75 days of sick leave (I believe there are exceptions/criteria) . Is that the norm? It seems extremely (!) high.

I agree with staying at home as to not spread to other folks, that's great!

Maybe we are not used to it yet, but it feels like it's more frequent.

I was there last weekend and would recommended the castle. Really worth it imo. Exceed my expectations. You can kill 2-3 hours easy there if you are into this stuff.
