We get a very reasonable amount of sick days, they are called Personal Days.  HOWEVER unless you can plan you sickness 3 days ahead, you are going to get shorted on your quarterly bonus.  Any day off with less than 3 days notice counts toward 'unannounced" absence and 4 days a quarter starts to take away the bonus.  So most people don't use Personal Days for sick days , they come in to work sick, so they don't get penalized at the end of the quarter.   If I am sick enough to not show up to work, I am going to miss more than 3 days.
