Oh that's BS. I have worked in the private sector and there were plenty of guys (and gals) that would take every little bit of sick leave they had coming to them. I actually saw more abuse in the private sector, possibly because here we CAN bank the sick leave. Since we have no short term disability plan, I see it as insurance against a major illness.
