I've done my entire thing - using two weeks blocks of vacation. Four times over two years. Okay - once I took the two weeks with two extra days - and then called in sick - for three days from Moldova.
PTO and a lot of juggling. I am in the process of doing it again. I am allowed to borrow PTO in advance so long as I can pay it back (accumulate) it during the rest of the year. If I go again in November I will cop 2 days paid holiday which helps. i.e. Thanksgiving.
Which is good because I don't even like turkey !
Same at xmas.
well i work for myself and i take off when i need or want to but anymore than a month at a time it gets hard on the $$$$$$$ then i have to make up what i lost
I am blessed as a railroad engineer to be able to mark off sick up to 30 days straight if i want to, but no more than 30. Then i have to get a physical if i do to return to work. I also have 4 weeks vacation and 12 paid personal leave days which rollover in to the next year if i don`t use them and they accumulate. Plus i have all the nine paid holidays.
Myself I work as a bartender now but accumulated a lot of cash during my professional job as an Engineer. Got laid off last year. Took the summer off and spent it in Ukraine. No wife, no kids, no girlfriend, not even a pet. I'm loaded and free as a bird. Other guys a I met while there. Real estate agent and airline pilot. Both jobs have a lot of freedom.
Me...I'm in the military,...I get 30 days paid vacation a year, and can accumulate up to 60+ days before having to use them or sell them for $$$ Love this job!!!!
I am working six days a week and have deep credit cards. I can also take six weeks off a year. I will say that if this venture doesn't work out with the one that I have seen I will not continue playing this game. It is just too much trouble.
I AM IN CHEESELAND, now when you say ferguson you mean supply company?
if so I do buy from them.
Yes, that Ferguson ... although I can see why you have the time, given an air conditioning business in Wisconson. No wonder you are visiting Ukraine ... it must seem balmy by comparison. Sure you don't have a side job doing Alaskan refrigerator repair?
