Friendships between single people and married people/people with children are inherently unbalanced.

I hate it and it's enough to make me want kids. At a certain point in their lives these older people are going out and trying to have fun, but everyone around them is some young early 20something whippersnapper, and it is all too much. Like, they obviously are the ones bringing the vibe to the venue and here's grandpa in his early 30s trying to fit in like it's 2009, c'mon man go get/make a life. There's a cigar bar down the street, why don't you slow walk over there like you're using up all your vacation time cause they won't let you roll it over.

[Laughs in Californian] State law mandates that employers roll pto/vacation time and workers can max out at 1.5x our annual PTO accrual.

FWP, I have had a full years of PTO banked rolling for at least 8 years now. Can't spend it fast enough but can't cash it out. I must be a workaholic.

I can accrue 50 days of PTO total. Earn 15 days/year as a new hire. My boss is always up against the max and takes a day off every month just so he doesn't give them free time.

Y'all are lucky. Im earning the cap on annual PTO now, 20 days, and I can only roll over 5 days max. I also get two floating holidays a year. Better than most Americans, but once I'm back from my honeymoon I'm looking for greener pastures.

The joys of being union. As I'm now 11+ years, I accrue 4 weeks of vacation a year, with a cap at 8 weeks, I accrue 12 days of sick leave a year, with a cap of 150 days. I get 4 floating holidays, all federal holidays paid off, and as I'm management class, I get 7 free manager days to use every year. So every January 1st, I have 11 days of leave I have to blow before I can even touch my vacation as floating and management days don't roll over, they are use it or lose it.

Here we are now mid july, I'm still sitting on 3+ weeks of sick leave after burning a week being laid up with a bad foot, 40 hours of management leave left, closing in on 200 hours of vacation, and I still have 8 hours of my essential worker covid leave left.

I love the school I work at, but they have very shitty policies about days off compared to the public schools.

I only get 7 days (others get like 14) and they don’t roll over.

And before anyone complains about my vacation time: all 7 of those is usually used up to stay home when my kids are sick, and I’ve had to go to school often being b absolute terrible shape due to being sick because of it.


Though in retrospect things have finally changed. Looks like hubby is going to get to permanently work from home, so now he can just watch them.

Also we are now saving $1000 a month by not having to pay for after school care. Hurray!

[Rhyis.]

dont you get 2 months off. cry me a river

[Ksandra]

TELL THAT TO MY STREP THROAT SO IT APPEARS ACCORDINGLY.

That's how they get you everywhere else, PTO counts as vacation AND sick time. It's considered no questions asked time off, but if you're sick during the year that's just less vacation time later; unless you want to go unpaid for that extra time.

Yeah, was how it was when I worked at Fry's. You got 5 PTO days for sick and or vacation. They did try to pull the whole use it or lose it thing till I conveniently printed out the California Labor Board section on paid time off and left it on the store manager's desk.

When one of you gets this rich, please get a house with an extra room for me to pay rent for.

My cousin and her husband to be both have their pilot licenses so they can take personal aircraft instead of fly commercial for shorter distances.

Don't own their own plane at this point. Think they rent with another one or two people.

[Rhyis.]

that would probably be a bigger hassle than anything

just trying to get some milk and i gotta do a 10 page checklist before leaving the garage

I'm really angling to be worth over $1M by the end of the year so I'll add this to the list under Day's bass.
