August 17, 20224 yr How did liberals again do the mental gymnastics to believe that Trump was hiding nuclear secrets and had a Russian passport. Hilarious.

I was really thankful to have an athletic trainer when I was in junior high and didn't know how to tape my own ankle properly. thats great. You probably werent grateful enough seeing as how in junior high, and even now you have no idea what else they were capable of.

Its great.

Did you know you can buy "CD"'s from banks? They don't play music, they give you slightly higher interest rates. The downside is, you are locked into a term, often a year, and can't cash them out earlier without penalty.

What is the difference in your mind? Yeah, it's experience and knowledge, but that can come with time. Some people have been doing it since they were kids. They can still have the "big picture" in mind.

But if we are being honest I rarely take close to all 5. Schmoopie pretty much has to force me to take any vacation, but thats just more me being a bit of a workaholic. (Says the guy closing in on 70k posts) I will say this. When baby girl was born and needed some extended NICU time, they gave me paid leave so we could attend to her. "They" being I told my boss and unbeknownst to me he took it all the way to the VP to get me this time off. And that paid leave was outside of the 12 weeks paternity leave I get from them.

Yeah, I get 5 weeks vacation (about 8 weeks cumulative with other time off) and don't take it. Sitting on about 400 hours of "roll-over" vacation time. I am not complaining at all. I never had any issues with work-life balance. I also consider myself lucky to be in the position I'm in as I understand not everyone is as fortunate.

Some people have been doing it since they were kids. They can still have the "big picture" in mind. Education and experience. And if they don't have the degree, a LOT of experience. More than you can get learning on your own as a kid. You might be able to code some cool stuff, but there are a lot of industry best practices, etc that you can only get through E&E.

The only way I can take advantage of unused vacation is if I retire. If I make it to the end of the year and retire any unused vacation turns into $$$
