My company went to use-it-or-lose-it PTO several years ago, and if I lost a few days each year I didn't fret about it. But this Spring they announced "no overtime allowed without prior written authorization from your VP." It was a major blow to morale. I have abided by the policy very strictly and very carefully. No extra effort from me this year, and I scheduled my PTO four months in advance.
On a positive note, they have been completely supportive of me when I have needed to take a sick day for medical appointments. No hassle at all. For my part, I give as much advance notice as I can, usually at least two weeks.
I'm hoping billytea comes through to assure the rest of us that 2021 has, indeed, arrived.....
My friends, Douglas Adams once stated that there are three kinds of animal in Australia: venomous, odd and sheep. I come to you from 2021 to announce that in the new year, one no longer has to choose between them.
Sorry, lisah. But knowing about Juneteenth (observed) is making me happy!
OK, I get how the sheep can become both venomous and odd, but are koalas now also sheep? Just want to be picturing this correctly.
Also, happy new year billlytea!
Happy New Year from central Europe! 2021 has arrived with single malt whisky and a small amount of fireworks (there shouldn't have been any, because they were banned, but what the hell). The New Year should be with you all soon. Have a good one, Buffistas.

And venomous! They are henceforth to be known as woolly bears. (Honestly it's not too baaaad.)
Also, happy new year billlytea!
Happy new year!
Happy New Year billytea and Fiona!
O brave new Australia that has such venomous odd sheeple in it
