I got this idea reading a thread about the "Gods Army" convoy to the border. Several people posted things like "don't these people have jobs"?, or "how do they have the time to go to the border"? And it got me thinking that it's bullshit for your boss to have veto on your political activities.

I understand that "Gods Army" are chuds, it's just the principal.

That’s a valid point. If you’re gone for days on end without a doctor’s note, though, I think your employer has reason to want an explanation. Plus, you’re asking others to pick up your slack. That’s something else to consider.

Also (sorry to be this way) it’s spelled principle in this case.

If someone is ill, they are ill. It's unfortunate others are picking up that slack, but it is on the company to make sure they are prepared to cover. Please don't ever shame an ill person because of this, blame your boss.

Absolutely. If I implied that, it was unintentional.
