A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

FOR REAL THOUGH. Like every person I have ever heard that has complained about PTO, are people who are in positions that either don't accrue it, or accrue it so slowly that it's never usable, or make enough that they don't need to ever worry about being paid vs unpaid when they take holiday.

I work nights from home, so I hardly ever need to take PTO. Kinda nice at the end of the year though when I typically take November and December off to burn the PTO I can’t carry over into the new year (limited to 40 hours).
