Yeah one of the reasons I don’t really want to look for a new job is that my current one I now get 27 days of PTO, plus I think 3 floating holidays? We don’t get much in the way of regular holidays (nothing between new years and Memorial Day) but still.
You know me! I'm like, "Go school! It's your birthday!" Or something to that effect.

Nothing between New Year's and Memorial Day?! That's a long time! I'm aggravated to get no holidays between July 4th and Labor Day, I think that's my longest stretch.

It’s fully remote, Jen! They are a Baltimore based company and do have an office address downtown but I don’t know when/if I’ll have to go in. There are a lot of unanswered questions!!

Oh and they have federal holidays off and get another one the owner decides what to do with. This year it’s July 5. I’m starting July 1 so that makes a nice short first week for me.

Fully remote with a nearby location you might go to sounds pretty good!

Thrive to spite them
Dad is in the hospital. It's a good thing he didn't try to come up. After his colonoscopies they said to watch for bleeding that might happen 7-10 days after and sure enough on day 10 he had really bad bleeding. But he went to the ER right away. They had to do a blood transfusion and another colonoscopy (I think) and repaired the issue. It was a blood clot that I guess kept things from healing correctly. He will be in the hospital for a few more days for observation while they reintroduce foods. He has been on a clear liquid diet but today he was going to get to have actual soup. Not just broth.
There is no cancer or anything. But it was worrying waiting for the details.
Apparently Dad has seriously considered driving up for Father's Day/my birthday weekend but decided to follow the doctors advice and it's really good because this would have happened when he was driving or when he was up here and neither of those are great options
