Mostly HR and Policy Briefings. Some things don’t differ from the military to Corporate America.

One of the things that does differ is the continuous harping on absentee-ism. Is it really that much of a problem on the civilian side of the street? I mean seriously, does the company really have to tell us every hour on the hour about how important it is to show up for work? How sad is that?

I’ll probably have to mention to my coach (trainer) that I’m not rolling my eyes because I don’t think it’s important, but because I’m having a hard time understanding why they have to keep harping on it.
