Just found out my company is giving everyone an extra week of vacation each year. So this year I now have a month of vacation to play around with..Off course last year I eneded up not using a week and a half. Guess they are actually the winners in the deal. Damn me and my stupid scense of work responsibility

Nah can't sell back or carry over. We used to be able to buy an extra week but that stopped.

We have a brief period this month where we can cash in unused vacation time.. but you only get 50% value for it. Still, it's better than being maxed out and not accumulating more time, in which case you're getting nothing.

Get unlimited sick time.. I do call in "healthy" every once in awhile.
