so you could literally, say "Boss, im gonna take the next 3 months off. See ya in June!"

How do people do that??? Its literally beyond comprehension to me.

I save it up in case I need it for some sort of medical emergency or something, plus, if I keep on saving it up I can retire early...

That said, my 13 weeks are composed of Vacation, Bonus Leave, Sick Time, and Comp Time...

But yeah, if I had a good enough reason, like the baby we got coming, I could use it all at once if I needed to... They might not like it, but they'd have to deal...

If it were just for the hell of it, and I just needed a break, I think Vacation/Comp/Bonus would at least allow me 6-7 straight weeks..

do those who have these rollover days work for the state? my God thats alot of time.

Im with Bo. This guy uses his time up every year. We can't roll any over and even if I could I wouldn't. Maybe it's because I have kids.

I current have 5 wks off for straight vacation or whenever I want. All the bank holidays and 5 sick days.

I get 5 weeks plus two floaters each year and I use every hour I can each year!!!!

our schedule is pretty good really...we work what we call 9/80....80 hours in 9 days, so we get every Friday off, plus 11 stat holidays. Pretty easy to stretch out every weekend if we want to

Its to cold to do yardwork right now, and we usually don't take but one or two vacations a year. And they are usually short ones because I get bored after 3 days on vacation. I hate golf. My son and I will be taking a few days this year to go visit some historical sites around the area. But I traveled a lot in my younger years (27 different countries, all four oceans, and four continents, so I am fairly content to stay at home now.

I am saving some time to take a trip to the Philippines to meet my wife's family finally. Not really looking forward to it, but its a necessity.

      Just look at OTC. It takes like 30 seconds. Also, ESPN just covered this today. As Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel openly mulls a quarterback change late in Tua Tagovailoa's disappointing season, here's the math on where things stand with Tagovailoa and the Dolphins. He has $54 million in fully guaranteed compensation in 2026. That breaks down as a $39 million salary and a $15 million option bonus that needs to be exercised between the first and third days of the 2026 league year in March. Additionally, on the third day of the 2026 league year, $3 million of his $31 million 2027 salary becomes fully guaranteed. So if he's on Miami's roster as of 4 p.m. ET on March 13, the Dolphins will be on the hook for $57 million guaranteed.   If they were to release him prior to that date, they'd still have to pay him the $54 million in 2026 cash and would absorb $99.2 million in dead salary cap charges. (They could spread that out over two years if they designated him a post-June 1 release, but they'd still take $67.4 million in dead money charges on their 2026 cap and the remaining $31.8 million in 2027.) If they were to find a way to trade Tagovailoa before March 13, the acquiring team would become responsible for the $54 million in 2026 salary and bonuses, and the Dolphins' dead-money charge would drop to $45.2 million. If they traded him after March 13, presumably they'd be on the hook for the $15 million option bonus, while the new team would take the $39 million salary; the Dolphins' dead-money charge would be $60.2 million.   None of this is even close to ideal, obviously, as it would leave Miami in a terrible cap situation and also without a quarterback. The Broncos took $80 million in dead-money charges (spread over two years) when they released Russell Wilson in 2024, and they managed to make the playoffs last season and currently hold the 1-seed in the AFC playoff field for this season. So huge dead-money charges don't necessarily kill a team's chances. But one of the reasons it has worked for Denver is it found a first-round QB in Bo Nix who could play right away.   If the Dolphins bench Tagovailoa this week, it'd be for either Zach Wilson or rookie Quinn Ewers, either of whom could theoretically be a 2026 starting option if they show enough in these remaining three weeks. But moving on from Tagovailoa would probably require the Dolphins to be players in that Mac Jones/Kyler Murray/etc. second-chance QB market if they want to compete next year. Not a great spot for whoever their next general manager turns out to be. https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/47324378/nfl-week-16-buzz-news-updates-fantasy-intel-questions-predictions#trades
