My situation is a little fucked up because I work 12 hour shifts, but PTO is based around 8 hour days because that's what most employees here work and they haven't made any special exemptions for us. These numbers are going to be based around 8 hour days because I don't feel like doing the math
Vacation time- 10 days for new hires, and you get 5 additional days at 5, 13, and 19 years, so assuming I stick around for 19+ years I'll have 25 days. You can carry over up to 15 unused days to the next year
5 personal days, no carryover
Sick days accrue at 1 day per month, so essentially 12, with unlimited carryover,
1 personal holiday
Certain things like perfect attendance, coming in for overtime, etc. can earn you "flex time" which actually is usually awarded in 12 hour increments.
I'm kind of bad at using my PTO. My schedule is kind of wonky and I work less days overall than most people and tend to just slot most of my vacation plans into that. If I plan things right I also only need to take 2 days off to get a whole week, and every other weekend I have a 3 day weekend. I don't tend to take a lot of elaborate vacations, 3 day or less trips are kind of my norm. Every couple years I'll do something a bit more elaborate and take a week or more, but more often my PTO tends to get used for other things besides going on vacation. I have a week coming up that I took off to paint some rooms in my house for example.
