  • Re: Rep Retirement Lodge 198 - A New Season Begins...

    We got notification that the company is giving us Christmas Eve Day as a holiday so that left me with one extra day to use or lose so I'm taking tomorrow off. I had planned to include the 24th as part of my remaining holidays anyway, but now that it's considered a company holiday, I had to find another day to use. This is the earliest they told us about it. Doesn't happen every year, but since the 24th is a Monday, it seems like a good idea. Working Monday-Wednesday next week then off till January 2.

      I have two days left to use so I planned that pretty dang well. Will probably take off next Friday and NYE. I have a spreadsheet to track/plan and I only mention it because I have a shiny new quarter that says you do, too.

      I have to go to LA for a quick last minute trip next week, this should bump me to Gold next year on Delta so that's kind of cool, I guess. First time the old eagle has reached such vaunted heights....

          Evening, Lodge. Found out this morning that I'm still over my "carryover limit" for PTO for next year (40 hours), so basically told the boss to assign me days. Now I have this Fri off, and Xmas Eve/NYE off, also. Boss said I better hit him with a ton of days for next year, so this doesn't happen again. Note, this is not DHBoss. I'm guaranteed the summer Houghton trip, I made sure of that, since I have hotels booked already.

          Get ready for about 15-20 Mondays' worth of requests to start. I will have about 5.5-6 weeks off for next year.
          THis post gave me flashbacks of not being able to get time off and made me a happy panda and grateful I am outta that place

                  It shouldn't be on mgmt to figure out how many days you have left. We earn per month, so we see our "projected balances" of PTO for the year, each month. I screwed up a little. I also don't like days off for no reason. Next year, I'll remedy that.

                  And so starts my 4 day weekend.

                        What kind of enginerd would have such a thing?

                        Right now my vacation is easy to track. I don't have enough 'cause I started 3 months ago. Should make maternity leave (I mean....short term disability?) that much more interesting next year.

                        Good morning Lodge.

                            I did. This board was the first "social media" platform I joined, and all the others after that, I chose The Rube. Figured get them all in sync (minus Facebook).

                              Been thinking about the same. Worried people are confusing it with twitch.tv (video game/art/whatever livestreaming site.) I know, I know, my lawyers are on it.

                              (I don't livestream - I'd love to try it, but I wouldn't be up for the task of sustaining an audience over time. Even the medium-ish names put in serious effort, and I can't sustain that.)

                                I just figured your name came from the South Park reference of "Twitch."
