I was a subcontractor via a staffing company for the worlds largest defense contractor. 2 weeks ago i was told that the contract ended (even though months ago I was told it was an indefinite contract). I asked for my PTO, i had two weeks. was told that it wasnt possible as all PTO had to be used prior to contract ending. I argued that I was put in a catch 22 postion.
so they relented and gave me 1 week of my PTO. Now I'm gonna apply for unemployment and try to figure out what to do while trying to avoid an amazon Data center job.
