yeah it feels like my vacations just exist to give me enough time to heal from my body's slow deterioration under the normal workflow. Only to immediately find myself exhausted and sore within a couple weeks.
I guess what's surprising me is that I never even considered using it for anything else
Is this a sign of a healthy society?
I never managed to bank any leave/pto while I was working fulltime because every time i had a single day I'd crash out and call in sick
Remember when Sanders was calling for the almighty 36 hour work week and libs were celebrating him for it? Lol
i work 3 days a week over two jobs and its almost more than i can manage
Hey some of us are depressed and poor!
I have done this 
This me when I get scheduled for six day weeks or being asked to come in an hour before my start time
My favorite is being scheduled for a "4 day week" followed by a "3 day week" so you're actually working a 7 day work week but not getting overtime 
This sounds illegal, but knowing this piece of shit country, I wouldn't be surprised if your state allows this (assuming you live in the US)
Yeah I'm in a part of the US where there are basically no employment laws at all. Employers don't even legally have to give me any breaks, ever.
I'm stuck in a similar state myself, yet I'm the entitled one for refusing to let these people continually fuck me over.
Right to work! (With no breaks)
hey uh maybe your boss has a boating accident
I assumed she has 2 jobs, otherwise IDK lol
Oh that's insidious.
Hey. Its me
Yea I’m not feeling guilty for this. I do it frequently. Sometimes I just want to sleep in when no one is gonna bother me
just sleepin for 10h 
Well deserved
I feel called out
long covid type shit

Hey now, sometimes cognitive decline just does that. 
Millennials be going through their eebycore phase rn and are sleepmaxxing.
I did that shit this very morning
Huh. Thought I was the only one.
i thought i was the only one who did this
I literally did this yesterday and the day. before lol
I've been doing that for the entire year just to recover from the burnout of a failed project.
And buddy, my time off isn't even paid. 
What's PTO again? Google saying it's reflux meds. Realy?
Paid time off. We usually one get a few sick days of any, so personal days dip into our pool of paid leave.
Oh, ok. Thanks! US labour system is alien to me.
me asf
That sounds awesome, I wish I had any PTO or vacation.
news
Welcome to c/news! We aim to foster a book-club type environment for discussion and critical analysis of the news. Our policy objectives are:
-
To learn about and discuss meaningful news, analysis and perspectives from around the world, with a focus on news outside the Anglosphere and beyond what is normally seen in corporate media (e.g. anti-imperialist, anti-Zionist, Marxist, Indigenous, LGBTQ, people of colour).
-
To encourage community members to contribute commentary and for others to thoughtfully engage with this material.
-
To support healthy and good faith discussion as comrades, sharpening our analytical skills and helping one another better understand geopolitics.
We ask community members to appreciate the uncertainty inherent in critical analysis of current events, the need to constantly learn, and take part in the community with humility. None of us are the One True Leftist, not even you, the reader.
