I agree, it is insane. Not only that, but we can accumulate 6 months worth. We also start witht 4 weeks paid holidays. The benefits of being in a union in B.C.

The good thing about the sick days is a co-worker broke her leg a while back and was off 3 months. She had accumulated her maximum amount of sick days so she didn't have to worry about a paycheque.
