    Think of it this way. If you make 50k a year and you get 3 weeks vacation and don't take it then your making 50k plus say...3k. Not much unless you have 200,000 employees doing the same thing. Not to mention you may get a pay raise by the time you use it and that ads up too. Have to watch those nickles when your a company making 8 bazillion dollars a year . Or a government !

Bud, on a simple term, let's say we have one employee who accrues leave worth 5 grand, well, of course that's an expense that needs to be funded. But I don't get how paying the 5k NOW is any different to paying it in two years' time.

    Of course, if they (the bosses) LOSE their leave because they haven't taken it, then THAT can save the company money.

    Good judgment comes from experience, and experience....well that comes from poor judgment.

    I should point out that unless you are a business owner or CEO we are all peons. And even they are peons to the shareholders and, ultimately, to the government. You gotta serve somebody!

    Or, as another wise man once said, "All in all you're just another brick in the wall"....
