Since, like you said, making it up the next week doesn’t seem kosher anymore, here’s a few strategies I recommend:

  1. First, if you have flexibility on which three days you come in, I’d recommend always erring on getting your badge swipes banked as early in the week as you can. You can always push your third day back from Wednesday to Thursday, or Thursday to Friday if something unforeseen comes up early in the week. But you can’t go back in time to change when you got your first and second day if something happens later.
  1. Always leave up to 5 days PTO unplanned through the remainder of the year, until you’re sure you’re not going to need to use it when you can’t go in. Using it as half days, that’s 10 days, or 3 1/3 full weeks worth of RTO hall passes you can call in when needed. Worst case scenario you take a bunch of extra days off around the holidays, when a lot of LOBs have nothing going on anyway, or carry it over into the new year and take some time off before 3/15.
  1. If you don’t like using your PTO and have less flexibility as far as which days you can come in week-to-week, try and keep a handful of extra badge swipes banked ahead of time as cushion. I know my LOB just looks for our rolling average from the prior 13 weeks to stay at or above 3.0, and from what I’ve seen on this site, for most people it’s probably the same. So as long as you track when the weeks you banked more (or less) than 3 will fall off the back end of that window, it’s easy to keep track of how much cushion you have. Any easy way to do this without it feeling like a huge pain is still coming 3 other days in a week we have off for a federal holiday, since those are counted toward our average.

I know it su-ks we can’t just be treated like adults who can figure out how to fulfill their job requirements without adhering strictly to an arbitrary metric, but this is where we’re at.

What a bunch of whiney Nancy's. No offense to all the Nancy's in the world.
It's just some rain for god's sake.

Any excuse to shirk your responsibilities as an employee. I bet your mail still got delivered.

It's not that bad of a storm. It's really not. If you were in the pan handle of FL when it was still a cat 1, you might have had problems. In the Carolinas it's just some rain.

It isn’t that bad. If the kids can go to school you can go to the office. Smart ones got it out of the way by Wednesday. Some you just complain to do it

Shart would love for you to be involved in a fatal accident on your way to the office to fulfill your meaningless 3 day RTO requirement . Your kids will be left fatherless but it saves him a bundle on the severance check he was going to write you soon as he can backfill your role with an Indian that will work for 1/3 the pay. Heads he wins, tails you lose.

It really su-ks that this is forced but I find that taking a 1/2 day PTO is the best choice to meet the requirement in these situations since it’s no longer good enough to “make it up by coming into the office an extra day a following week” like they told us in the beginning.

Wanna hop a ride in my rubber duckie float?😂

In all seriousness, stay off the road people. Nothing is worth your life.
