Ultimately the cap is because there is a max on how much you can receive per month. So they align with each other. But honestly if you're at the point where you're hitting the social security cap, then it's not even going to be your primary source of retirement. In which case capping benefits but not capping contributions would hardly be noticeable, but would help keep social security solvent.
To be clear, a maximum on monthly benefit, not total!
I don't work for Amazon, but when my employer announced mandatory RTO I simply included travel time in my day. At home I could do 8 hours of pure work. RTO days were about 6 hours of work and 2 hours of commute.
This line of reasoning is baffling anyway. Amazon is spread out over multiple geographical locations, it's not like remote meeting will go away
I'm pretty familiar with how one particular brand of TV works, and you're right, it's absolutely not screenshots. It's a handful of single pixels across the screen. By matching these pixels against known content it's possible to identify what was being watched. Not too different than how Shazam can identify a song.
That's not to say all TV manufacturers work that way.
Between my current job (unlimited PTO) and my last (30 days PTO) I've had 30+ for the last 10 years.
Last year I used 35+ days.
A lot of it goes to smaller things. 1 or 2 days here and there. Few days camping, turn a 3 day weekend in to a 4 day, etc... It really can change how you use your time.
$5.30 for a deluxe, $2.80 for fries.
Dick's and a taco truck in the same area ($2.50/taco) are my go to cheap but delicious lunch options.
I've played somewhere around 1500 hours across multiple systems. There's really nothing else quite like it.
My biggest use case for the deck is to be able to keep playing the same games as I do on my main gaming PC when I go on vacation. This was really put to the test with Cyberpunk 2077 and it worked shockingly well.
That said... it's definitely not ideal, and it's generally relegated to similar games like you're talking about. Peglin, Celeste, etc
That isn't "normal" though. Part of the reason that companies like unlimited PTO is that typically workers take less PTO when unlimited is offered.
I had 8 weeks paid per year in my last job, so rolling in to this one with unlimited I pretty much do the same. But for sure I'm a bit of an anomaly. I rarely see others taking time.
I tried this, but was told "take your laptop, we'll expense the Internet".
I very intentionally received only an associate's degree with the plan being to immediately get a job and start learning from there. It's worked great. Except that was 20 years ago and now many jobs "require" a bachelor's or otherwise have the nerve to say that 4 years of on the job experience is the same as 1 year of college.
In my experience, I've seen the same thing. The university time kick starts things. But university lessons are so different than real on the job work.
What?! How in the world did you get that out of what I said.
There is a maximum monthly benefit. Maybe I need to go back and reword it or something, because this totally misses my point.
