A viral Reddit post showcases an Indian manager's unusual sick leave policy requiring employees to inform at least seven days in advance.
The incident occurred when an employee notified their manager of illness and requested a day off. The manager responded by asking if the leave request was for that day and then insisted on the seven-day notice rule.
Social media users found this policy impractical, sparking humorous and sarcastic reactions. Comments included suggestions to use a time machine or inform colleagues of potential sickness. The bizarre policy highlights a significant gap between standard practices and employee needs.
