Should I let the point system at my job intimidate me?

[Anonymous]

I work at a union job with a point system. Before you make it to your 90 days they give you 6 points to use before they terminate you. After you make it pass your 90 days those 6 points increase to 12, so you pretty much get more lead way. One point drops off after 60 days of perfect attendance. I’ve been at my job for a year. I have 6 points. My points don’t reset again until my anniversary date which is in September. My job doesn’t honor you being ill/sick or doctors notes. If you used all your sick days and you still get sick or even if you’re practically dying it’s a full point which is why I have 6. I’m worried that I won’t make it to my anniversary but I could be overthinking because as long as I continue to come to work on time and come on days I don’t feel great and sacrifice, I won’t go pass 6 points but the point system is stressful.

That is intimidating. Your feeling is natural. Just try to do a good job.

Leave early to get to jobearly so you don't lose points.

It's understandable to feel stressed about the point system, but try focusing on maintaining consistent attendance and punctuality. Consider implementing wellness strategies to minimize illness, such as a balanced diet, regular exercise, and sufficient rest. If possible, explore options for support from colleagues or supervisors to better manage unforeseen absences. Keep communication open with your employer about any critical situations. Your proactive approach and commitment can help you navigate this successfully. Balancing work demands with personal well-being is key.
