That means there are 20,000 workers from various crafts who all share the same vacation policy. It’s not the type of thing that comes up in department-level union negotiations.

Our shift workers have the option to work on holidays for 2.5x. if the observed holiday is on their rdo they get a banked holiday. If they take it off they get normal 1x holiday pay

It’s city work.

USA, CA, civil service, IBEW. I’m between 5 and 15 years (different PTO for different service lengths).

15 days vacation, all federal plus 5 floating holidays, and 10 sick days.

It’s 10 days vacation between 1 and 5 years, and 20 after 15.

It helps if you watch it over and over, until the tape wears out.

And by etc, OP means Princess Bride.

I mostly listen to DJ mixes on SoundCloud.

Are we talking gay or gay?

That word gets thrown around a lot without actually meeting homosexual. Most of the time it’s just used as a tasteless replacement for lame.

Our little dog used to let out these long, shuddering sighs when she was frustrated. I used to repeat it back to her, and picked up the habit. Even though we had to put her down a year and a half ago, I still occasionally let out her sigh.

I was going to give you the bad news, but apparently, Tesla didn’t build the Giga Train

The SCADA servers.

Four of these?

Sometimes day-ta, but more often da-tuh, with the first a being pronounced like acrobat, the second as a schwa.

It’s in their Investor FAQ.

It’s a little confusing. Their site says it’s open to UN member nations.

Their NEWDEV bond ticker symbol doesn’t show up on any of my normal haunts.

That’s basically what Graveyard looks like when I arrive at 06:15.

This is making me chuckle, because I just did this last night for a dinner party. It was a hell of a lot of pasta for 7. I kept it moving, even in my big stock pot. Only a few strands stuck to the bottom. We have leftovers.

I usually cook a quarter of that for the two of us, sometimes half if I want to eat for a couple of days.

2lbs/1 kg is a lot.
