Vacation Time
 

So I have PTO (Paid Time Off) at my work and you can only keep 2 weeks retained at a time come June 30th of each year. Needless to say I need to burn 100 hours of PTO before June 30th. I have to decide what days I want to take off for the next 3 months before the end of next week.

Do you think Velious will be out BEFORE June 30th? I don't think so....

Same boat. Cannot accrue more than 5 weeks.
I need to use 5 days before 1 May and another 10 days before 1 Aug.
They need to just pay me out. Jerks

Oh man... If I could get paid out, I would only use like a week a year for a family vacation and make some mad bank at the end of the year.

If you work Monday-Friday I'd think about taking off at least every Friday and Monday for the next however long, and work a Tues-Thurs 3-day week ;)

Gives you a wide spread at least so you'd have some 4-day weekends.

Actually I'm just noticing a lot of my department has already gotten their requests in. It doesn't look like I will have any chance at all for June. Everyone must have wanted it off for the nice weather.

Shit's classic... at my old workplace I got 2 weeks in April and a week in May due to everyone else being bastards :/

Well I'm the new guy on the totem pole, so it is what it is. At my last job if I wanted more than 2 days off in a row they frowned upon it and made a big deal out of it. Here they are "Discussing" with me in meetings why I am not taking days off. lol

Sorry your old co-workers were bastards, I kind of know how that goes.

Can you just like... show up/leave an hour late/early for the next 50 business days?

I used to work for Royal Mail (UK equivalent of the USPS)...and a lot of us would work a 6-day week (Monday - Saturday).

One guy booked 20-25 Saturdays off :D

Screw 3 day work weeks, stick another weekend in the middle of your week for a month.
Take Tues/Wed or Wed/Thurs off instead of Mon/Fri.
