I was going to say Heinemann's closing had nothing to do with the sick day ordinance...

... But when even commenters at Boots and Sabers can see that, really what's the point?

Charlie Sykes, reliably, gave credence to Heinemann's blaming their closing, in part, on the sick-day ordinance.

The Brawler would note that Heinemann's has been steadily closing restaurants for a variety of reasons for a number of years and before the current recession.

And when -- as is the case with Heinemann's -- lenders are taking over your assets and other creditors are waiting in line, a sick-day ordinance doesn't crack a top 25 list of problems.

But the foolish sick pay ordinance doesn't make employers challenges any easier either - now does it. It could be in the top 10.

It's as foolish for you to write it off as meaningless as it is for those who emphasisze it.
