Vacation Deprived?

Elspode · 07-26-2004, 09:11 PM

I started my job in mid-November of 2003. Thus, according to Masco policies, I am granted...wait for it...exactly *one* vacation day in the year of 2004. I also accrue sick days at the rate of four hours per month, so I need to wait until October to get really sick.

There are no personal days available.

Fortunately, my boss has been rather impressed with my performance of late (I've been doing two jobs, and sometimes three, for the past month) and announced to me last Thursday that he wanted me to take a couple of days off in August. Good timing, as I'm going to the highland games again this year.

Look for more bird pictures and a much more relaxed me in them.
