@BordedDev yea, just salary. If I don't take my days off, i'll get fucked by the government with taxes lol
-
@wojtek322 lucky ;P guess I should be happy about the new job.
But technically the company should be aware of this and have setup preliminary ways of dealing with it. You can't book them with your current time in the new year? -
@BordedDev agreed. However, I technically work for a consultancy firm but I am fulltime at the client. The project is with the client and they have no backup dev for my role. They have 2 devs who can learn it but it will take and they need to do their own work.
So yeah, this client fucked up in project management and has no backup plan if I get hit by a bus lol
Transferring my holidays to next year is not supported by my company. -
@wojtek322 Well if you want the PTO tell them, give it to me next year on dates XYZ or I'm going on holiday on ABC and the client work will be incomplete. That is, if you really want the PTO over cash. Everything is negotiable in business
when your code is a mess but everything work out in the end
When you keep getting +1s on a rant you posted a month ago.
Go big or go home.
I got a new job a few months ago and carried over my PTO from previous job. I still have 16 days of PTO to be taken by the end of the year. The projects deadline is also the end of the year. With the current development progress, I don't see it anywhere being close to possible. There is also no agreed expectations what the project should do.
And yet, the deadline cannot be pushed back and there is no one else at this company that can do my job at this point. We have 2 people who can learn how to do it but they have no experience in this programming language.
