OMG everyone is getting on my nerves this morning. Stop being stupid co-workers.

Our sick days and vacation time are just bundled together, and we can carry over 3 weeks' worth into the new year. Speaking of, I'm off work next week and just found out the bill for today's car repair (having my brakes fixed) is low enough I can go on an actual vacation in good conscience. Eureka Springs, here I come!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Sorry, yes we have sick days, but there is not a set #.
Oh yeah, that sounds like the "unlimited vacation" bs that I've been reading articles about. "You can take as much time off as you want! As long as 100% of your work is done."

That's pretty much what I have. My team have the blended vacay/sick which does not roll over at all. That doesn't mean you get to take big blocks of time to use it up - it means it's on you to plan it out over the year so you don't lose a bunch.
I really only track my team's PTO so that I can remind them to take it every so often and not have a bunch banked at year end. And if they go over (it's 18 days, 23 after three years) I could give a rats ass. They're still taking time over the holidays, as much as can be managed.

I have 4 weeks of vacation and unlimited sick time. The unlimited sick time is still OK for me to take-- I don't think anyone realizes that once you move to salaried, there even is unlimited sick time.
I can roll over up to 4 weeks of vacation, but due to a bad boss 7 years ago, I always have to roll over the max, since I could not take vacation for a whole year, and I have never been able to catch up!

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
If I had vacation to use up I would be taking a day a week.
