I sincerely hope we get as much rain over the weekend as they think we are going to here in the Carolinas. It will give me a damn good reason to not do a dang thing but get in some R&R.
I had to face the fact that I'm getting seriously burned out after working two years with virtually no vacation time.
Over in England I got five WEEKS of paid vacation time including paid holidays- not counting sick days.
Company now? ZERO Paid Vacation Days. Oh sure- I can TAKE a week or two off, but with prices of everything these days- I can't afford to take the time off and lose the pay. So instead of losing pay- I'm losing my sanity.
Me and the Boss had an almost two hour meeting today to discuss some issues....mostly that I'm having.
Also tho also for him to remind me that when I reach my retirement age in February I can continue to work my 40 hours here at my job.....he said he REALLY doesnt want to lose me to retirement. I don't think that's going to be an issue with the price of living these days. However, I did tell him I WILL be taking a weeks vacation every 6 months- I don't care if it's a stay-cation and I sit on my backside on my back porch and look at the clouds or the stars roll past- I WILL be taking those two weeks every year.
Gar-UN-Teed!!!!
