New Re: Time to make you envious
Oh, that doesn't include the 14 or so public holidays every year...

New Sounds like I'm somewhere in the middle.
I haven't chased this up with my current employer for various complicated reasons, but at a previous job in a large corp, I got 22 days leave on top of the ten (I think) standard public holidays. I don't remember how many sick days I had - I think without a doctor's certificate I could take up to 10 with pay.

Is it enough to love
Is it enough to breathe
Somebody rip my heart out
And leave me here to bleed
 
Is it enough to die
Somebody save my life
I'd rather be Anything but Ordinary
Please

New Can I kick yer pasty British butt? ;)
New Well, as for my part... Naah, what the heck.
I assume I wouldn't even have to *make* you envious; if anyone, it's *Peter* I could try that on.

Furthermore, in order to post about my guaranteed-by-law benefits, I'd have to look up what, exactly, they are... And frankly, I just don't know. (Why should I? I trust they're there, as much of 'em as I'll ever need and more.)

All I know is, I have thirty days of yearly paid vacation -- which has *nothing to do* with whether I'm ill or not; WTF do *sick* days have to do with *vacation* days???

(Oh, and in addition, I have three weeks of paid "Fatherhood Leave", the second of which I'm just enjoying now... So it seems weird that I'm posting a lot *less* than usual here, isn't it? Heh -- sheesh, man, I can't wait to get back to work and get some rest! :-)

Your lies are of Microsoftian Scale and boring to boot. Your 'depression' may be the closest you ever come to recognizing truth: you have no 'inferiority complex', you are inferior - and something inside you recognizes this. - [link|http://z.iwethey.org/forums/render/content/show?contentid=71575|Ashton Brown]
