Does your job offer generous time off?

I'm really trying to get a job with the school district or a local college for this very reason.

Work too much and get no time off.

Very generous. Sometimes I dont even take it lol but I guess you have to match it up with work and strike some sort of balance otherwise you get super behind and everything just piles up.

@boopy Right, I really need to work on personal development. I have so much I need and want to do.

And what do you do for work?

@iamnikki I work as Finance Officer. I guess thats tough to compare with your field of work.

Working in a government run hospital the more years you work the longer the time you can get off. On the condition that the hospital has the staff to let you off on holiday.

@Thevy29 work in one now. can barely get time off. Small dept. If Sara wants the 30th off, and so do you, it's first come first serve. If you call out after being denied, you get write up. it's so stupid. Then if you are off, you are automatically behind.

@iamnikki The first time I managed to get time off I took managed to take month off. Sounds nice right. My brother had his first kid I was there for that. My niece tried to kill herself. I was there for that and my dad had had a stroke and was only able to go home because I was there to nurse him.

When I went back to work I had been charged with negligence by one of my co-workers. Had to stand up before a hearing of all the bosses and explain as nicely as I could that If they didn't want me taking the time off work then they shouldn't have okay'd it.

Good idea. You get every summer off.

@infiniterealism yep, or at least two months, depending on if it's a college or grade school. Colleges have to work summers,4 days a week though.

@iamnikki I see.

I took several months off a few years back.
