That statistic does not show that AAA games are not dominating. It could just mean that there are more than 20 AAA games selling well. From the article, they note that “the top 79 games to account for 80% of total PC playtime”.

No one sold me unlimited PTO. Upper management decided to switch to it and never trained employees and managers on how to optimally use the policy. Everyone knows traditional PTO, from working at other companies or the same company before the policy, so that is what we fall back on.

I don’t understand what you mean about “getting my work done”. I have an infinite amount of work I could be doing. Every week, my manager expects me to complete about a week’s worth of work. Taking PTO is an excuse for me not to hit that quota.

I suppose there could be a policy where I need to get 6 days of work done in 5 in order to earn a day of PTO, but I would start looking for other work if that was expected of me.

I am curious why you like unlimited PTO.

I have had “unlimited PTO” on several different teams and the way it always works is that my manager decides on an amount of PTO that I get (negotiable). I then have to track that amount over the course of a year and have to discuss with my manager if/how much I can roll over. The only advantage for me is that my manager is likely gave me a larger PTO pool than corporate would. The disadvantage is that my manager and I cannot just open up the timesheet system and see how much time I am currently “owed” so it is up to me to keep track and take it for myself.

Remember, only shop on Bandcamp Fridays, when all the money goes to the artists. The corporate owners are not playing nice with the employee union.

That is not sufficient cootie protection. A properly trained physician will follow it up with
