you must work in a different public sector too my mates regularly take sick days and have had more than i have had holidays, i dont see why they dont just give you a couple of paid ones and you get sod all like most others in the reall world.

as far as i can see most public services add little value, most of the stuff they do could be outsourced to the private sector and be done cheaper and better.

Ditto - I've had some exposure to the public sector workplace and the amount of sick days taken by staff is astounding. As is the amount of slacking around. Further, many are on pretty comparable wages to the private sector - it all depends on how well you've played the game. Plus pensions are just about the best around and job security is as good as you can get.
