Which underscores the point I was trying to make above:
"And, in reality, the company doesn't "owe" any sick days to anyone. It could just as easily be "no work/no pay." If your company is good enough to allow time off for illness, etc., and particularly if you can accrue it for more serious illness, injury or pregnancy -- be thankful."
This situation is not unusual. It's also not unusual for part time people to have no company benefits whatsoever.
