Learned that new job expects employees to use PTO on the big 5 holidays
I started a new job I was really happy to get. The pay was good and the same work as my previous job, just a bit farther in distance. I was excited that it was nonprofit despite the other one and had a union.
That excitement turned into annoyance and this is my second week of being here. I since learned that while the nonprofit part stood, the union is not that good. They made a deal with the company that required employees to have to use PTO on the 5 big holidays. One of them being Memorial Day.
I can’t use PTO till 90 days of employment, which I was fine with since I’ve dealt with that before. So I asked what I do and they said I would have to go on lwop (leave without pay) for that one day.
I thought to myself…Ok. I‘ve never not been paid for a holiday before. In fact at the old company I got paid time and a half for working on holidays.
So I decided to accept two job interviews for jobs I’ve applied to previously and they reached out this week. If they offer me something and the pay is right I’m writing a heavy detail to HR and everyone I know there as to why I’m leaving so suddenly.
The interviews are on Monday. Which I’m grateful I was allowed to schedule them on that day since it’ll make the day off worth. Wish me luck!
