With the car keys.

I get 5% extra per year saved of sick leave on my pension, up to 2 years, adjusted to percent of the year left of sick leave. But my job is fun and people tend to want to work.

I bought a 5 piece set of these at Costco a few weeks ago and they are amazing.

I think this is the longest running battle in the history of warfare at this point.

Best: when not on a call I have minimal supervision and can do virtually whatever I want. I do good work and have legitimately saved 3 or so lives in the past month in my new position.

Worst: sleep is poor and my schedule is annoying if I have to nap in my off time.

I had to stop playing because of that. It seemed fun otherwise.

I do 48 hours in 2 days every week. Bit more spread out, but still just 2 days of work.

My union got me more money in a single year than I will pay in dues for my entire career in at least 3 separate years in the 6 years I've been working for my employer.

I get leave each year that is slightly more than 20 percent of my work hours.

Unions are amazing for workers.

Just made me check mine. I'm in a good union and earn 2.46 hours of sick per 40 hours of work and 3.28 hours of leave per 40 hours of work. A year of work is 2498 hours for us for reference.

I also get 48 hours of other leave, 16 hours of leave per each of 13 holidays, and I can take my overtime as 1.5 hours of leave per hour worked instead of pay. We also get 240 hours parental leave for a new child.

Leave accrues whenever we are in a paid status on straight time.

At my previous job I did hospital triage. Once a guy walked up to me and said "My wife isn't doing well, I think she's dead". He told me she had been sick for several days and when she started doing really badly he had to get his neighbor to help carry her to the car. He said he didn't want to bother the fire department.

He had driven from his home on the eastern fucking shore of Maryland to DC. 100+ miles. Told me he was going to be staying at his house in Maryland because he didn't like his house in DC. She came out of the passenger seat and stayed in a seated position and we put her in an unstaffed room.
