Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

OK, say one is employed in the computer/tech industry and been working for the same company for more than 10 years (11, actually). What's the usual/common amount of vacation/PTO/sick time that one might get per year?

Three at my Michigan job, four or five at my last job, and more than that here. All the jobs were tech jobs, but only the first one was at a tech company.

Unrelatedly:
A Greek policeman has been arrested after allegedly shooting a man who had double-parked his car to buy breakfast.
The driver and a friend were ordering coffee and cheese pies on Sunday when the off-duty officer told them to move their car, police said.

What does mobile penetration mean?
No, not like that. In this context:
a fully digital telephone communication system with a mobile penetration of over 95%
