Ugh. I sold my vacation time back to the company this year. My wife started a new job so she has no vacation time and if I did a staycation at home I'd just end up wishing I was at work because I know all the shit is piling up. :usacry

Title: Re: BOOM its holiday time.
Post by: Mupepe on June 21, 2013, 04:23:15 PM: I sold back 2 weeks worth. I get 4 weeks, but they only allow us to sell back 2. I can sell them back @ 100% of my hourly wage so that's good. The other 2 weeks I'll end up just using here and there. I was thinking about taking every Friday off for the last 10 weeks of the year. That would be sweet.

Grenada was ok, too much bad hummus and drug-addicts. Amsterdam may be flat as fuck, but it at least has decent pubs and fine weed.

That's also fucking insane. How does America operate like that in an effective manner?

Kinda? In the sense that I basically get an additional paycheck on top of my regular paycheck. But the time I sell back is only at 100% my hourly wage.

Post by: Polari on June 22, 2013, 10:28:48 AM: Fuck yeah. Just got back from a few days in Rome, and few days in Florence, followed by a week at this rich old dude we know's bomb ass pad in the south of France. Nothing like a pool overlooking a valley of vineyards.
