Wow, I have to work this whole week, all 5-days, then, next week, I'm off Wed, Thurs and Fri
Then I still have some 14 more days to take
First time in my entire life I have gotten 4-weeks of vacation
I have 2 weeks off in September. That will leave me with 8 days that I might carry over to next year. I started with more than 7 weeks this year!

You guys are so lucky. Enjoy the time off as and when you get to take some vacay

I've been trying to bank as much vacation time as possible ever since I started working full-time here.

The maximum we are allowed to have is 40 vacation days. After blowing 5 days last week, I think I'm hovering around 25 remaining.

I just want to get to the max so that I have them if I ever want them.

Again, that is the 2002-2003 dash
2000-2001 only has vertical white lines from the numbers to the tach lights
2002-2003 has both vertical white lines as well as the white arch line

see the post right after that where i said... oooohhhhhhhh i see it now.

Dont want to wander in the Knapp Thread, but based on Doug's list there are 17 AP2's and 10 AP1's which brings the total to 27. I remember him saying we had 29 participants in S2000's. I'm guessing two of them did not want to be a part of the group or are coming with other friends.

Greater in numbers? Sure. The AP1 was made for fewer years, making it rarer, and thus, better!

hows this...

my ap1 sucks and is falling apart and most likely won't make it back from knapp.

your ap2 is better because and solely because it is not falling apart and will make it back from knapp.


the end... no more... end of discussion.

In the grand scheme of things everything falls apart and rises again.

I get 4 weeks which has to include any time I take off if I'm sick. I haven't had a sick day in years. I did get stuck using some of my vacation time in 2009 and 2010 due to the shoulder surgeries. HATED using vacation time for that. Came back to work a week after both surgeries, miserable and hurting, but I was here.

I use every day, every year, maybe I'll carry over one or two but that's it. I don't think I'd be allowed to carry much more than that anyway. I took a week in June, one in August, taking a long weekend in September and the rest I use/used in days.

Vacation time is good for the soul. Batteries need to be recharged.

Any day out of the office is a good day in my book.

Can you tell I'm hoping to retire before I turn 80?
