This. My social battery drains like a sieve and I find work related social events especially draining. Give me a bonus and day off instead and I'll be singing your praises.
I'm also curious about this
A) totally fucked
B) pretty fucked, but if the wildlife doesn't get me I might stand a chance
C) gonna be a learning curve but should be good to go really
I remember a constable coming to class with one of these and commenting that I had excellent veins should I ever do IV drugs. They 100% set us up to fail.
I'm pretty sure he loves me, but he needs to find a way to express it without his teeth.
That's a good question. I guess it might depend on circumstances. A surprise day off before like a long weekend would be pretty cool even if I've already made plans I would think, but then I like to stress out and over prep for trips and such. Extra PTO certainly helps when planning ahead tho. A situation like "hey, here's an extra day for the next long weekend/xmas/whatever" a couple weeks ahead of time might balance being a surprise and allow planning ahead?
To be honest I've never thought this through this far before. No employer has never actually asked what I'd prefer and no one looks for thought out solutions when complaining to friends or online.
