Vto

[Couch Potatoe]

VTO is an acronym for Voluntary Time Off.

If your work offers this, it is as addicting as crack. To get to be one of the lucky ones to actually get VTO, you must have lightening fast reflexes in submitting a request for it when it is released by your companys OPs team, and know how to read the WorkForce metrics tables so that you may anticipate its release. First ones to put in a request, and have it pass in the system as a valid request, will earn precious time off from work. Perhaps a half an hour, perhaps the entire day. Once that happens, you have crossed over into the obsessive/compulsion addiction; welcome to the darkside. A job without actually working (or getting paid).

Abbreviation for Viral Terminal Organism. A Viral Terminal Organism is a virus that enters your body whenever you voluntarily leave work before the end of your regularly scheduled shift. It is transmitted by IEX, which despite claiming to be a nice company, isnt so nice afterall. Basically, you leave work early, you die. Just like AIDS. VTO is thus another way to force you to stay, working in slave-like conditions, all the while corporate jabronies deepen their pockets off of your productivity. Also of note, it is the opposite of taking extended hours, which of course results in cold hard cash.
