It depends, were you hired the previous Thursday?

So what if they were? If you're ill, you're ill and should not have to go in to work. Sometimes ill-timed shit happens. Only in the US you can get fired for it. My mind boggles at the concept of "retroactive" firing... wtf is that even?

I suppose the upside is you can quit at anytime with no notice. That’s great from an employee perspective, in a feeling of freedom sense.

Nope. I’d been there for 6 months.
