This was discussed yesterday. The article is wrong (aka fake news) and this is a good thing they did.

This has been talked about in other topics.
Why exactly do businesses want this? Some people are afraid to take PTO and some businesses only give you PTO when it's inconvenient, is this why? What happens when a business goes out of business with outstanding PTO? Do the workers get nothing? ... Copied to Clipboard!

Why exactly do businesses want this? It means they don't have to pay their employees overtimes pay, and by offering paid time off they also don't have to give the employee the ability to use that paid time off whenever they want, they could even have time limits on that paid time off so the employee won't have much time to use it. That way it's "fair" while being not fair and saving the business money, It's amazing change for businesses and especially corporations, they could gain millions from this. --- I got nothing ...

These seems potentially abusable, and certainly inconvenient to some workers, but it's not as downright evil as a lot of the stuff Republicans have been trying to do. If it works out for the best, woo whoo, if not, we know who to blame.

I know it was put on hold because government gonna government, but wondering if anything will come of that. specifically, it was blocked by a federal judge, not overturned by the GOP congress i think it is good to actually post a link to the bill full text since it's so simple. CNN coverage on it has not been very good--it leaves out important details like the bill being opt-in, 100% OT = 150% PTO as the rule, and requiring employers to be willing to exchange PTO for the employee's hourly wage within 30 days of a written request normally i am all about the GOP getting fucked in the ass when they try to do things but i actually think this bill was decent --- And when the hourglass has run out, eternity asks you about only one thing: whether you have lived in despair or not. ...

I can confidently say I'm not and you're clearly being an aggressor here, if you want to hide behind the mods then you're just furthering my point about being wrong. Moderation or no moderation, you're wrong. You getting angry about my denial doesn't help anything, the mods won't change you being wrong either. --- Knowledge is power, power corrupts.

I'd rather not get the time off since I don't really get to decide when I really want the time off. As it is, I never end up using all my PTO for the year. I'm already sitting at over 100 hours of PTO.

I'm apt to agree with Darkman on this. Of course I have no doubt the GOP will find a way to fuck it up entirely. But maybe this is supposed to be their one charity bill that they can point to over the next 50 years while they destroy everything else.
