2 weeks of vacation, 1 week of personal time, so relly, 3 weeks. Not sure what it jumps to next year. I think I get a month at 5 years (been with the company 2+).

Woohoo for the U.S. Military.

I earn 2.5 days of leave (Vacation) every month, and can now keep a total of 75 days until sometime next year. Then it goes back to 60 days.

And I can "sell back" my days of leave when I get out of the Navy or reenlist.

Earn 30 days per year, can carry up to 60...and never get to take the 30 in a year.

No kidding.

Funny thing is, my wife sees my leave balance and says "take some leave".

I tell her, "I can't right now".

"But you've got 43 days of leave on the books!"

She doesn't understand that just because I have them on the books doesn't mean I can take them any damn time I please. You'd think she'd figure it out after 13+ years...

There'll be plenty of wars after you're dead - someone else will look after them then like they can look after them when you're on leave - take the frigging leave.

4 weeks annual leave, ~1 week public holidays, 2 weeks sickies.
Still haven't got the hang of taking the sickies, I guess I'm not properly Australian yet.

Ditto.

Except lately... I get a day off here and there. Like today I finished up everything to do by 10:00 AM, because there's no fucking volume of work to be had, at the moment.

Do you actually work at being this clueless, or does it come naturally?

I'm about to take two weeks to attend my best friend's funeral.

The scenario I provided was generic, speaking to the fact that just because you have vacation stored up, the workload and associated deadlines doesn't always allow you to take it when you want.

The minimum here is 4 weeks (20 days) per year, with no ceiling - if your employer wants to give you 30 weeks a year holiday leave they can.

Christmas and Boxing days off, as well as NYE and the 2nd of January - I plan to take the days in between, as well as a few after 1/1/09 & 2/1/09

You get four weeks paid vacation working 16 hours a week?  Does that mean they pay you for 16 hours each vacation week?

I'm confused, but I also think you are confused.
