A moment to appreciate the Kafkaesque situation of faculty time sheets.
At two schools in different states I've been required* to submit an electronic time sheet every month, detailing days and even hours of sick, vacation, and/or other leave time I've "used". I've also been ordered or pressured to charge/pay sick days** for illness or bereavement. Faculty (at these schools) almost never charge sick days, for the simple reason that nobody will do our job when we're not there. I've tried to push back on this and only succeeded in getting even higher up on some administrators' shit lists.
The administrators want faculty to reduce their accumulated sick time if they miss class, though they are absolutely not going to pay someone else to cover the classes, research, service, and advising while the faculty member is out. They seem to think this concept is unthinkable.
Now I, like everyone else I know, don't inform administrators when I am out sick etc. If I can get a colleague to cover a class (we often trade favors), great, but no way am I losing earned sick days when I still have to do everything as if I hadn't missed class, anyway.
I've also asked about overtime: If we're required (in theory) to document every hour we miss of our job, shouldn't we also be at least documenting extra hours we put in? The response to this question has been vaguely threatening with a strong suggestion that anyone asking that question is not a team player. The verbal answer has been, in essence, "No, because you're not hourly; you're salaried."
... which doesn't explain why we have to track the hours we "miss".
We have no set number of hours to work. Admin sends lots of "expectation" messages about when we should be on campus, etc., but (a) decades-old union agreements specify that there is no set number of hours, and (b) if admin pushes that too hard I assume they are flirting with paying faculty for the actual hours we work, and no administrator wants that.
* "required" = get nagged until I do it every month
** In my current system, accumulated sick days at retirement determine pro-rated discounts to monthly premiums if staying on the state health insurance plan, so faculty are motivated to maximize sick days and administrators are motivated to minimize them.
