Technically I think so, but from what I've seen some people use PTO days for sick days (or to go to the doctor)? We have 6 holidays + 1 floating that we can use, and they don't roll over from year to year.

I see - a few times in the past bonuses have been announced if "x occurs". Yeah I'll bring it up - I'm not sure how "important" it is compared to other day-to-day meetings and such with managers, but hopefully

I've never heard of a bonus being awarded (or a signing bonus of sorts when first starting being given) Being my first FT position after finishing school I wasn't sure what to expect for reviews/raises/etc.

I've been at my current position for about ~1.5 years almost without one (I think they are starting to do them soon?). Last time I asked they had said they are implementing a formal process for them. I've just been looking forwar

When I hear these sorts of comments I'm always curious how long these people have been working. It obviously isn't everyone receiving cold calls and such, so what sets them apart?

How does one even start investing? Aside from a 401k what sort of things should people be looking into? Would your casino funds be something that (you) actively manage?

Having never been rock climbing before - how hard is it actually to get into? I suppose it really depends on where you live (the author mentioned using climbing to get out of the gym, but I think that's the only place I ~could~)

I went for a few days to Vegas for work (first time going) and enjoyed it for the time I was there. Other than that I've been trying to wait until a band I really want to see plays at Red Rock until I go there.
