i have to leave this section...
it's like my mantra..
i have leave and excess hours but i have to be in the office...
if i was in another section, anywhere else, i'd have planned out my leave.. even right now, i can't... because things keep popping out which we have no control over and i have to be around to handle it..
it seems like the moment i plan the leave, things pop up..
either that or my insane boss will scuttle the plans..
my leave is going to be cleared to zero because of plant shutdown
forced to clear leave :(
i left with 3 days, which i would love to bring over to next yr... *sigh*
I haven't taken leave this year yet. want to carry over to next year =D
I exhausted almost all my leave for my overseas trip next year.........
i have 12 days left from last year which will disappear if i do not take by the end of this year...
i will be bringing forward 28 days from this year..
i have about 190 excess hours unclaimed..
which i will gladly throw away if i can leave this section
u have 28 days leave a year??!!! *stab self*
28 days?! I only have 20 days a year....
am eatin this
surprisingly good. was on sale. heehee. so i bought to try...=P

20 is also alot, i don't even have that
anyway, I know pple with 28 days..... + I've heard that poly has 40 days....................
the sad working life in private sector...
have a lot of leave is one thing can clear or not is another. people at my place throw away leave all the time, and we still hate the NNBCCB HR for removing the old scheme which allowed us to sell a portion of our leave.

just so you know, public sector also got changes liao. new people coming in are being given less leave and less paid sick days
people like bear are under the older scheme.
i think it was a decree by Lau Lee's accursed Mandate-loving son
i get about 24 a year and carry forward 1/2 of that. but looks like i'll be carrying forward about 20 - officially it'll be 12 and the 8 will be off the records.
yeah.. i'm under the older scheme..
the assholes actually asked me if i wanted to give up 7 day of my 28 days...
i asked if we'd be compensated for opting to lose that 7 days of leave and they said no.. i laughed hysterically at them...
guess what? my insane boss did that.. she has 21 days because she opted to forgo that 7 days!! (told you she was barking mad)
the newer occifers get 17 days.. and after 10 years of service get 21
the junior occifers get 14 and then dunno how many after certain years of service..
my 1st job in govt (or issit semi, watever lah), i start with 21 days... suka suka take leave stay home sleep... hahahaha
bear, not compensated who in the right mind would give up?! siao bor.... and yes obviously ur lunatic boss is siao one...
give up 7 days without compensation? are they mad?
anyway yeah public sector getting quite bad. sick days also only 14 now i think. + no health care.
actually that has been the trend for quite awhile i think last time was 32 days leave then drop to 28 then 21 and 18 for public sector.......
as of now, Obama has 174 electorial votes.. he needs 270 to win..
McCain has 49
the Democrats have the Senate...
the House of Representatives is still nowhere near decided yet..

poor poor deluded mousy...
the teachers do not get any holidays at all...
when the brats are on holiday, the 'chers go back to work, planning the next year's stuff, going on course, running the admin stuff, doing the CCAs, being tormented by their principals...
