My husband has over 140 hours of earned vacation time coming which he will lose if he doesn't take it. He requested next week off and was told he'd get it.
When the schedule came out, he was on it. They "forgot" he was taking it off... This happens quite a bit of the time too. The only way he got last year's vacation time before it expired was to end up in the hospital for emergency cardio-vascular surgery... He also works about 10 to 15 hours more than three forty-hour-work weeks in a two week period.
I guess we're lucky in that they have not yet done away with overtime pay.
I use to laugh when the media would tell us that bushmonster wasn't really on vacation, he was really working behind the scene. And they had the balls to actually call these working vacations. Of course no one really knows what the hell he does on these working vacations.
