This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Yeah, we had our explained clearly in orientation, and it's in the employee handbook, also available in orientation or the company handbook. I manage people, and if they ask me, I'll pull out the handbook and show them. It's not hard, there's a nice table of contents and everything, and the relevant section is like 2 paragraphs.

In fact, I consult it periodically and find cool stuff that I wasn't aware of (but also not relevant to me), like bereavement leave (apparently extra PTO if someone dies, and you get different amounts based on relationship), or our profit-sharing plan (X% of compensation to retirement plan, has a vesting schedule; separate from matching plan and bonus).

Read through your benefits, you might just find something cool. If not, at least you're not doing your actual, boring work...
