Chief
those 5 days are not supposed to be for PTO
Chief
yeah you literally said those were for sick days. 💡
I’m in NYC and this is what our paralegals make in BigLaw. This is very low by NYC standards comp wise. Are you in Idaho?
It’s low end for in house but honestly for only 3 YOE it’s not horrible especially in a LCOL area which OP confirmed.
Pro
Sick days should be separate from PTO days. At most companies you can’t use sick days for vacation. Are you saying you only have 12 days of actual PTO?
Can you ask for approved days off unpaid?
Where are you located?

I am in small town PA (not Philadelphia or Pittsburgh)
You could try talking to your manager and just asking if you could have a few bonus days. Sometimes a manager will just not care if you take an extra day that you don’t technically have. All depends really.
Another option is to just work remotely from abroad and kind of just work it so that you don’t have much to do on those days… that really depends on how heavily you are babysat and how busy you are. At jobs I’ve had if I just blocked off most of my calendar I could honestly get away with not doing anything all day unless something rarely urgent came up.
