You probably got every conceivable holiday off too. Is ground-hog day a government holiday?

>Actually, when I left the government job, I was earning 8 hours every 2 weeks or 208 hours a year in paid time off. On top of that I earned 3 hours every 2 weeks for sick time off. Both could roll over (about 1/4th of that). Don't know why I left now... :o)

>>>I get 5 per year, plus I can "buy" an extra one. They take out an amount each paycheck.
