To explain for those not in Canada… It is usual in Canada for a job to start with a low level of PTO an then add a week every few years that you stay with the company. This usually is capped at 6 weeks.
You can, of course negotiate an amount of PTO when you accept a job. Someone coming into a more senior position wouldn’t expect to start with just two weeks of PTO.
My BIL still gives his weight in “stone”. As in, “I’m 12 stone, 7 lbs and 3 ounces”.
I joke with him that only makes sense to people who are comfortable with Pounds, Shillings and Pence, too.
