      That’s what PTO is for, when you just have to take the day

      The amount of times I’ve just decided to take the day because I felt like it is not enough. I still have almost 100 hours of PTO built up and about 80 hours of vacation time.

        I hope you realise how much of a luxury it is to take a day’s leave à la minute.

          Oh yeah it’s a luxury for sure

          It really shouldn’t be, but unfortunately it is

            Well I think even an ideal society would involve responsibilities that require people to be at a certain place at a certain time!

              I think in an ideal society that most jobs would have enough hands on deck that an employee or 2 calling out on a day wouldn’t be the end of the world

              In my current job we build PTO at a rate of 1 hour per 40 and vacation at a flat rate of 10 hours per month. So basically every 2 months we can take a day without notice and every month the we can take a day with notice.
