Ffs don’t tell them that. They’re already flocking to NC in droves. They leave because they don’t like California and proceed to turn anywhere they go into California. If anything, THATS where we need a fucking wall.
There are a ton of people in the US who have really good paid leave policies at their jobs, it’s just that there are also a ton of people who have really bad leave policies at their jobs
According to the BLS, about 45% of nonunion workers in the private sector have paid vacation time and about 75% have paid sick leave. The numbers are quite a bit higher in unionized and public sector jobs. A bunch of states have implemented various mandatory paid leave laws. At the nonunion hospital I used to work at here in Texas, everyone got about 6 weeks of paid time off, which could be used as sick time or vacation time, plus 9 paid holidays. This included housekeeping, food services, nurses, everyone.
I’m not coping, I clearly stated above the current situation is really bad for a lot of people, but it’s also not “zero paid leave for everyone in the US” as implied by the graphic
The obligatory (paid ofc) vacation is 5 weeks not 6.
Lots of people have more, like 6 weeks + 12-24 RTT (days you can take here and there, it’s really great) and sometimes you can trade them for money etc., with the exception of the 5 weeks.
hi, just created my account and installed voyager to browse on my phone. its great so far, I hope it’ll last and I can ditch reddit entirely. Trying to find more interest-based fediverses, anyone know where to look?
Love the irony of this being posted on .ml which has trash mods and admins that will ban you from completely unrelated communities if you dare to call out their bullshit.
