We get an additional day of vacation for every year we work here, which is awesome, but unfortunately, none of it rolls over. I wish my sick time did, I feel like I have to take it and that we're being punished for being healthy.

It's both a blessing and a curse :) Rainbow Sprinkles on "How much paid time off do you get a year?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-paid-time-off-do-you-get-a-year/page/2#post-1173634 Thu, 24 Oct 2013 22:58:54 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 1173634@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I get zero!

Apparently it has kind of an opposite effect in that no one really takes vacation. I don really get it and I'll be taking at least as much as DH gets (~3-4 weeks). But I guess probably somewhere around 4 weeks since that's what I used to get.

Then there's things like bereavement, jury duty leave, days off to vote... but those aren't used every year. So, I typically take my 4 weeks, stats and like 3 sick days a year. So, about 7 weeks a year off paid. yin on "How much paid time off do you get a year?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-paid-time-off-do-you-get-a-year/page/2#post-1172901 Thu, 24 Oct 2013 18:29:25 +0000 yin 1172901@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Zero plus I don't get paid for being a SAHM. =p DH only gets 2 weeks, and he has been working there for 6 years. banana on "How much paid time off do you get a year?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-paid-time-off-do-you-get-a-year/page/2#post-1172771 Thu, 24 Oct 2013 17:56:06 +0000 banana 1172771@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @loopedd: Ummm. do you ever work? lol.

Can't remember how sick time accrues, but we get that as well, and it doesn't expire (though you lose it if you leave the company). indi on "How much paid time off do you get a year?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-paid-time-off-do-you-get-a-year/page/2#post-1172574 Thu, 24 Oct 2013 16:30:26 +0000 indi 1172574@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Our standard 10 holidays and then six paid vacation weeks. That was negotiated for due to my upcoming maternity leave that I'll soon be taking. Awesome deal for my 2nd year of career work, so I don't take it for granted! Otherwise, it's 10 holidays and similar to @MsLipGloss:. However, we don't have billable requirements, so it's just "as long as I get my work done." My office is very flexible. autumnlove on "How much paid time off do you get a year?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-paid-time-off-do-you-get-a-year#post-1172551 Thu, 24 Oct 2013 16:21:21 +0000 autumnlove 1172551@https://boards.hellobee.com/ 5 weeks lovehoneybee on "How much paid time off do you get a year?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-paid-time-off-do-you-get-a-year#post-1172549 Thu, 24 Oct 2013 16:21:05 +0000 lovehoneybee 1172549@https://boards.hellobee.com/ DH gets 2.5 weeks + most federal holidays + an extra hour for every 8 hours he works.
