Rub it in why don't you. :P

I had sporadic health issues earlier this year that weren't consistent enough for FMLA and I'm down to 4 hours PTO. If I'm a good boy, I'll gain maybe an hour a month.

Plus, the whole deal at my workplace was they acknowledged they paid under market rate in exchange for extra flexibility. Now we have new management who desperately doesn't want to pay us for time on-call anymore, and doesn't believe in time in-lieu (work after hours, get the equivalent off during business hours). I'm a full fledged systems engineer making under $90k. That's a lot of money, but it sure as hell isn't competitive for my skills, and more and more I'm wondering if it's really worth what it's costing me.
