Question - I have had to isolate since last Wednesday but this week I had annual leave booked - Surely I’ll receive those 5 days back?

Anybody been in this situation before? Cheers in advance.

    Dan I guess it depends a little on your company, but when I was in the same position last year, our HR team cancelled the planned holiday time, and recorded it as a sickness absence instead.

      vinnyt77 My wife just said ring in sick all next week 🤣

      Can you cancel the leave and work from home instead?

      Laptop is still in the office.

      Would someone courier it to you? Better than losing a week’s leave

      Not a bad idea, mate.

      I might just hang it out next week. Fuck em.

      Our work set aside 80 hours of special “Covid sick time” for everyone in the event of a positive case. Maybe your work can do something like that?

      In my place you get special leave for COVID, but always been wary of trying to cancel leave for sick leave, even though this is allowed. Obviously you can prove you have COVID with a test, so you could offer for them to send you the laptop and you’ll work from home rather than take it off as sick leave.

      All good ideas - Thanks lads.
      I can’t sanction working from home as my boss is also on AL.

        Get another job mate. Sounds like a right ball ache.

        What Millsy said. What a bunch of cunt they sound. Cancel the holiday and tell them you’re sick.

          Along_the_Wire I made that clear last Wednesday mate when I sent my positive PCR confirmation email. Cunts will try and fuck me over… again.

          Joe Rogan has Covid19 and is taking the horse dewormer, and other untested treatments for it. He’s never admitted to taking the vaccine. Always a chance he doesn’t admit it, but I think he’s just that stupid, and thinks he’s unstoppable.

            We should expect an uptick in Frat House Horse Dewormer parties

            You thankfully need a prescription for it in Finland.

            Can’t someone else do it? If not, fuck them and call in sick
