Thanks--I requested a skin tone card, Strix. Can't hurt. if they have an underwear set that fits comfortably, I'd be bubbly happy. I've always envied the options Vortex's skin tones gives her (you wear purple, right? I'm wearing a purple bra under a green top with a loose semi-transparent knit, and FUCK IT. It's part of my colour scheme. When I leave the house, it will be in a purple skirt.

There's hope that you'll find something worthy...that your life will lead you to some joy...that after everything...you can still be surprised. Illyria: Is that enough? Is that enough to live on?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

We can take an Unused Vacation Payout once a year, but you have to leave 40 hours. Accruals carryover to the next year with a max of two years' worth. "Employees reaching maximum accruals will be required to use vacation leave", I'm not sure how that's enforced.

Ann, that's a ferret.
The Feds allow rollover 6 weeks of annual leave. (I still have 3.5 hours of use-or-lose, which I plan to use one quiet afternoon when the weather's nice.) No limit on rolling over sick leave. Starting the first of the year, if you retire with unused sick leave, you can add it to your service time for pension annuity purposes.

I get lots of vacation at my current job, but due to the need to maintain staffing levels, even surrounding holidays, one may not get approved to take it. For example, I was explicitly told I would never be allowed to take 3 weeks off in a row. And I am not likely to be getting Dec. 27-31 off despite asking for them because someone is retiring and someone is having open heart surgery. Luckily I am only one of 2 people in my office with school-aged children, so I should get spring break.

Which makes me so happy I don't think I can express it in the English language, just high-pitched squeaks.

Yes! What a coincidence! I want to [deleted] his [bleep]. If I had a kitten for every time he's sent me half-unfinished or carelessly screwed-up work and I've had to send it back to him, often more than once, I could play kitten poker for the rest of my life.

You know, I of course was thinking of you when I posted that.
