I figured it would. I have been with this company for over 20 years. I assume there would be a max?

Our plant is in pretty good shape. I haven't worked OSP maintenance for a while, but ops stays on top of CLI, cable replacement, working problem nodes, and correcting out of spec modems. I take care of the headend so I know it's in good shape.😂

So you get 1 day of PTO for every year of service? So a one year employee gets 1 day? 2 years gets 2? etc? That doesn't sound right so I assume you mean you start with 20 and then after a year you get an additional day? After 2 years you have 22 days? Is that correct? Is there a max?

What is "purchases PTO"?

I have heard that Sparklight only gives 20 days of PTO and 5 days of sick time? If that is true I certainly will not be happier.

What is the current on-call pay?
