Life is a highway…

July 24th, 2008 Posted in Life in General, Travel

We have a little web-based time clock here that all the hourly employees have to use (*grumble mutter*). It’s slow as hell, and kind of a pain, but one of the few useful things it can do is keep track of sick, personal, and vacation time.

I’d never really looked at the totals before today. I mean, I know I have vacation time - it’s just a matter of getting everything here at work set so I can actually use it. This morning I was somewhat curious though, so I flipped over to the tab to see what the numbers said.

*sigh* And trying to open it up just now for the exact numbers, it made my other computer seize up completely. These people shouldn’t be making software, they should be making automotive brakes.

Anywho. I have some carryover vacation from last year (which is technically not company policy, but my boss pulled a string with HR), and some comp days from working a holiday or two. With that added to my normal vacation time, I have 15 paid days off.

I could just up and disappear for three weeks. This is made further appealing by the fact that Jess doesn’t have a job, which makes it FAR easier to coordinate.

Three weeks. I love road trips - I wonder where we should head off to?

    Gas prices really stink for road trips right now. :(

    But if you do happen to pass through Indiana, I know a couple of someones who might like to take you to dinner. Or something.

    Silly car-obsessed southerners.
