        If you self-quarantine, burn your PTO, we aren't going let you ride OH even though it's not your fault. I don't know about you but neither I nor anybody I work with is permitted to telework. If you're lucky enough to work outside a SCIF, hey, great for you, but company-wide 80% of even those people can't telework unless they have one of these in their garage:

        Cherrypicking bits and pieces to make something sound way worse than the full story is a tactic you would typically be against. Be better.

Messages were sent to the students in the to-be-vacated hall that they will get their reassignment upon return from Spring Break on Monday. They can arrive a day early on Sunday if they wish. Fortunately, “the Girl” does not reside in the hall being vacated, but friends received these letters. Again, this all being done in-preparation for potential quarantine(s).

            That's... crazy. But I'm glad some states are prepping. This is what a cogent response to a pandemic looks like.

                    Late to the convo, but my company switched to PTO a couple years ago, but the formula they used to combine the former sick/VAC days was very well done (earn x hours per month depending on how long you've been with the company). Everyone got about the same number of days as they did before, but in the case of people like me who don't get sick and therefore didn't use sick days...we actually "get" MORE days of vacation now.
                    Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

                      Yeah, and there’s still intense pressure for people to not stay home because they’re eating into vacation now. People do t treat PTO as sick time. They treat it as eating into vacation being used. That’s bad when you’re facing a pandemic with self-quarantine on the honor system.

                          Starting to hear rumors that other countries are going to put the US on their no fly because our government's response to the virus is so deficient.

                          We have achieved the medical status of Iran and Italy.

                            No, Rube, that's not a good way to do it. That is how my company (and most) does it, and it works exactly the opposite of the way you would want a benefit to work. It's leftover from an obsolete and unhealthy (literally) way of thinking. It punishes people for getting sick and then those people have no choice but to come to work and make everybody else sick.

                            In all honesty: do you understand the difference between "good for me" and "good"?

                              I won’t be surprised if that happens.

                                The way my company did it, it is a good thing.

                                The staff at our company is very good at the whole "sick" vs "just using a sick day because....because."

                                So, in essence, they ADDED UNUSED sick days to our PTO.

                                How many people used a sick day, just because they have it and can use it, and they are not really sick? Just sayin'.
