Since there's no minimum PTO requirement, yes but it has to be marked as sick time. Most employers in a state like California though know that they're going to be the bottom of the barrel if they don't offer more so they do.

Usually those other days though are just vacation days.
Most other countries have those days on top of unlimited sick time.
Most states don't even get 5, or 3.
The states that have mandates are (usual suspects incoming):
Arizona - 40 hours
California - 40 hours
Colorado - 48 hours
Connecticut - 40 hours
D.C. - 7 days
Maryland - 64 hours hrs
Massachusetts - 40 hrs
Michigan - 40 hrs
Nevada - 0.01923 hours per hour worked (works out to approximately 40 hours if you work a standard 40hrs/week, 52 weeks/yr
New Jersey - 40 hrs
New Mexico - 64 hrs
New York - 56 hrs
Oregon - 40 hrs
Rhode Island - 40 hrs
Vermont - 40 hrs
Washington - 40 hrs
Some cities/counties have their own requirements but I'm not going to list those. I wish the US did better on Healthcare, but, as with everything, it's the blue states dragging the country forward kicking and screaming.
Even if you know what you're doing, you'll probably go bankrupt after winning. Annuity is, as you said, a stopgap against stupidity.
You know what also wasn't a word?
Literally every word that is now a word.
Modern reactor design also pretty much makes runaway reactions nearly impossible, as in, you have to actually try to fuck it up.
Even Fukushima didn't have a runaway reaction, it just lost coolant.
Sounds like they should join a union... maybe one that respects picket lines, like the teamsters.
Don't be a scab, don't deal with the "inconvenience" of people being hurt by scabs.
Oftentimes being in a specialized field is a double edged sword for your own wage too. Sure, there's not many of you for them to hire, but also there's not many of them for you to go to and if you piss any of them off, you're screwed out of any future job.
Making a union even more important I think.
You know those aren't necessarily the ones that are the most common, just a random list that some pollster put together, right? And that the whole point of the list was to show political differences among current political topics, right?
Amazon denied that they were doing it as a company (of course they did).
Luckily, the union won this election and it was certified in january of this year
