Workers who receive 11 to 15 days of PTO each year are more likely to use up their days, Rodney says, but there's a significant drop-off once people get 16 or more days.
And here I am, thinking my 30 days are too little.

Why are we discussing a screenshot of a title and not the article?
Why did OP take the effort to take a screenshot of a title, upload it then post this instead of linking to the article?

My friend has unlimited PTO. He’s not even shamed for using it.
I’m envious.
jj4211@lemmy.world 6 months ago
Typically, people take fewer days off when “unlimited”, as they don’t feel they are owed any particular amount.
toynbee@lemmy.world 6 months ago
Also, in the US, employers have to pay departing employees for any unused PTO. If the PTO is “unlimited,” there’s (perhaps counterintuitively) nothing to reimburse.

Fair! I suppose find myself with sooo much excess vacation time since WFH means I don’t have to take “me” days to recharge like I did when I had to go into a horrible open office every day.

I’m technically offered 10 days. I’m lucky if I use 6 or 7…

Is it because they wouldn’t be approved? If I have leftovers near the end of the year I just take a few Fridays off, giving myself some long weekends
orangeNgreen@lemmy.world 6 months ago
No, I think my supervisor would approve as many days as I want as long as I also get all of my work done. There’s always just too much work to do, it seems.

Consider taking alternate Mondays and Fridays, same 4 day week, but a 4 day weekend every other week.
Honytawk@lemmy.zip 6 months ago
So wait, those 10 days are just the maximum limit and not the minimum limit?
AtariDump@lemmy.world 6 months ago
They are.

Use it or lose it.

Maybe you can buy more days off through the benefits system?
zout@fedia.io 6 months ago
I can, and I do most years.

One of my biggest social media pet peeves. A screenshot of a headline is a useless post. They either took the screenshot and chose to not include the link or - more likely - they copied it from some Instagram page
catloaf@lemm.ee 6 months ago
It denies everyone the article, it’s not searchable, and it’s inaccessible for people using things like screen readers. People who screenshot text deserve a special place in hell.

It’s one step above “memes” that are just text. I include Lisa Simpson/Spiderman on stage and similar templates in that category of garbage posts

My gift to you.
glimse@lemmy.world 6 months ago
Not the point…and the guy I was replying to posted the link already. My issue is that posting a screenshot without the article means you have to then look it up
Quexotic@infosec.pub 6 months ago
Ok. Just trying to save you some time, internet friend.
marcos@lemmy.world 6 months ago
I’m not sure the goal of an article like this is to be read. Looks like something that was written for the headline only.
But yeah, the article backpedals and blames management for employees not taking PTO.
(And 11 to 15 days of PTO an year is the good example? WTF, US?)
