Sounds Amish. They also quit working when someone gets sick (the whole crew). Your logic is legit but sadly it doesnt work that way everywhere.

At my work you have to not show up for 3 days straight without calling in for them to consider firing you.
Like you can no call no show 3 days in a row and somebody might say something.  It's insane.

Year before last I was dead ass sick. Like I shouldn't have been at work but I needed the money. I was puking and or shitting atleast once an hour. They didnt say a word. Probably lost more in labor on me for a couple days then i was worth. Some employers don't give a fuck at all

I just had a lady tell me today that she was sorry if I didnt hear her because her throat was fucky. One of my supervisors was hacking everywhere today. Me and my fellow Mexicans are the only ones who can manage to show up to work everyday.  Its insane.  I could probably punch in Tomorrow and go sleep in my truck and punch out and nothing would be said.

The end game is going to be me unionizing my legit work Visa and green card friends from the deep south and live like a Jewish Kang. They're going to fuck around and find out who runs barter town when Juan is carrying me around on his shoulders and I shut production down over the shitty ass intercom.

a lot of employers are short sighted. i learned a long time ago (when i worked for someone else). if your crew gets sick send them home, yep your gonna lose a week of profits / production. but what happens in your case you guys will keep spreading that shit around for a month, so now profit / production suffers longer. it takes a brave dude to shut his own shit down.

during the hurricane a couple years ago i was paying about 1/4 of my employees to stay home and using my equipment to help their neighborhoods. it sucked for me, but my guys got their areas ready for the line crews to get back into and they had power restored pretty quick. we had areas that didn't have power restored for 6 weeks or so, because utility workers could not access the areas due to trees and shit just laying in the road. all of my guys roads were cleared, within a couple days. we got back to work much faster than other guys in my area, right in the middle of a lumber shortage. 3/4 of my crews were not in this area and they never stopped working.
