Thread regarding State Farm Insurance layoffs

You will never know 😄

I wonder how long this situation would go on if our leaders couldn’t take time off they wanted?

I was just thinking today how many important family and friend get-togethers I missed because of my second shift work schedule. It really made me sad in retrospect. I'm not an employee there anymore, thank God.

Quitting that company was a great decision. In hindsight, my time at the Farm was a complete waste. They retain and promote only 2 types of people: those who can think and can't learn, and those who can learn and can't think.

I missed my dads Cancer surgery because i could not get a day off, nor could i see him as visiting hours coincided with my work schedule ...i missed pretty much many of the important events because there is no day off available

Dang you must work in Claims right? I am so sorry to hear about your Mother and definitely encourage you to start looking. There has to be better out there.

Profit is their bottom line, not you!!

Life leave my guy, please use it .

Just call off sick. What's the big deal?

As for the person who 'has to work holidays', either get someone to take the day for you or shut up and realize it's part of your job duties to, you know, fu----g work.

I’ve had to miss Thanksgiving and Christmas with my family because I couldn’t get any time off. But of course we have to be there for the customer so sc--w the workers.
