I know this probably isn’t anything new and most definitely not unique to my situation, but I think it’s bullshit how even when you use company-allotted vacation days, you and your paycheck amount still end up paying for it. I work 5 10s M-F and anywhere from 5-7 hours on Saturday, for a total of 55-57 hours a week.
Well this last week, I had a court date to go to so I took a vacation day, so at least I’d get paid still. Well I checked my email paystub last night and it said 40 Regular, 8 Vacation and 7 Overtime, but my Vacation was ofc paid out as normal time. So I went from usually 40 Regular and 15-17 Overtime to essentially 48 Regular and 7 Overtime, so my check was significantly less due to less 1.5 time.
This might be super menial and dumb, but I hate how even when using vacation days, these jobs still find a way to make you regret using them and your pay takes a hit because of that
