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:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Where dafuq it stacks? AFAIK in most of the world it is either paid out in the end of the year or is wasted and goes nowhere.

Employed in the US, I can stack up to 240 hours. After that it's use it or lose it, so I just take a few hours off every week.

hours

the US labor rights are so bad they have to measure time off in hours 😭

To be fair, 240 hours divided by an 8 hour work day is 30 days. That's pretty good amount of time that can roll over. Where I live it isn't measured in hours but there is less time that can roll over than 30 days.

I also fully recognize that I have a fairly generous employer. I don't think my experience is representative of most Americans.
