This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

PTO isn't vacation though, it's "Personal Time Off," which is a combination of sick leave and vacation time.
If you compare two roles, one with separate vacation and sick leave and the other with combined PTO, the PTO will be higher than the vacation, but lower than the combined total time off. You lose a little for that flexibility, but there's no guarantee that you'll be able to use all of the sick leave.
I prefer PTO because I don't get sick all that often, and my company allows me to WFH when sick (it's more flexible than that). My dad had separate sick leave and vacation, and he never used up his sick leave so a lot of it would be wasted.
