I took a wrong turn and got stuck in traffic for a marathon that was going on the same day. I got to the venue 3 minutes after my race was supposed to start! Needless to say I felt like a complete idiot! I have my goal for next year though, to qualify for the CRASH bs in Boston. |

Regular 1023 Madrid | Subject: RE: TAN#194 UnimporTANt Chatter Any early risers ? Slow day. I see the inventor of the Etch-A-Sketch died at the age of 86. Used to be one of my favorite toys, and taught me at a very young age that I would never have a career in anything that required artistic talent. |

I ended up in something where there were only 2 possible outcomes- up or down. Those were the best odds I could find. The rest is history. |

Ha! See above for my monumental FAIL! Yeah, I caught that this morning. Sometimes I start a reply and then notice I never hit submit, because I started working on something else. Multi-tasking with 2 hours of sleep shows that I shouldn't ever do it. :-)

I get PTO which goes to sick days, vacation days and holidays so the more sick time I take the less vacation time I get. my company does that too, i don't understand that policy. it encourages people to work when sick or horde their days just in case and not take vacation time - which is pretty proven to be important to employee productivity. i've already got 12 vacation days planned out of 21.5 before june - better not get sick!!! |

Regular 1023 Madrid | Subject: RE: TAN#194 UnimporTANt Chatter I'm pretty sure the system is like that as a deterrent to the increasignly frequent don't feel good so won't go to work today. Most people have an inflated sense of self worth compared to what they earn. To compensate they work less. Here in Spain they just passed a law for government workers that if they call in sick they don't get paid unless they have a written confirmation from a government doctor. To go see a government doctor can be an all day affair of like 98% waiting. Funnily enough work attendance has improved sinse this law was passed. Edited by gr33n 2013-02-05 6:44 AM |

Very true! They will force us to take off if we are sick enough though. Oh and hurricane days come out of that as well. I had to burn some of mine with all the recent goings on so I have to build mine back up, I'm down to like 2 weeks. Likewise I better not get sick! |

I can roll over PTO up to a certain accrual amount but that is like 8 weeks for me. I doubt I will ever bump up against that limit! I can also cash out my PTO. I think that is more for the senior management who get a whole lot more PTO than the rank and file. |
