Vacation payouts depend on state law, I'm pretty sure. In California you've got to pay it out, but I'm pretty sure that's because the legislature made it so.
Yeah. He's my hero.

No, our vacation policy states that vacation and/or sick time has no monetary value. We do not pay out for time not taken.
It totally depends on the state. Sadly, it looks like this might be legal in NC: [link]

Woe to the fucking wicked.
I was looking at NC's labor law FAQ, and it looks like there's not a lot of worker protection (I am not in a position to be judge-y, living in Indiana), so that doesn't surprise me.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Yeah, I just talked to the ESC, and they confirmed that it's totally legal. Damn, shoulda taken both weeks to be in New Orleans. Ah, well.
Thanks for the speedy answer, hivemind!
Now to file my unemployment claim.

Yes, this is why the policy handbook of my company has to follow each of its sucky policies with, "In California, our policy is as follows..."

Thank you Harry Bridges and the General Strike of 1934.

My favorite is that, when I leave (hopefully soon), they have to pay me for all unused vacation plus the pro-rated amount of vacation I've already "earned" for next year (since my company grants all vacation on January 1st).

It's also nice when you get paid out at a higher salary for vacation hours you accrued at a lower salary.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Wow, that's shitty, smonster. Now I'm looking at our policy and it says "an employee who terminates employment will be paid for accrued vacation time," which makes me wonder what about if the company terminates the employee.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
So, anyone doing anything special on May 21st? That's the end of the world, in case you forgot. Also, it's on a Saturday.
Well, crap. Totally forgot about that. Why am I job hunting? I think I will now stop that silly business.
