Leaving A Job, 2 Weeks Notice And Vacation Days…How Do Y’all Do It?

[Devil Plisken…CMS]

Had a convo with somebody regarding their situation…

- you got a new job
- gave your two weeks
- you’re informed you would only be paid out your vacay days
- you still have almost a month of sick/personal days

Do you schedule vacay for your last week in the office or Do you plan time off before you start your new gig on your own dime?

If the company isn't going to pay it, then I would use it before leaving. It's your time/money.

What's the difference between personal days and vacation days?

I wouldn't call in sick, but assuming personal days is accumulated hours I would look to use them before leaving.

yeah at mine there is no difference it's all PTO time sick/vacation





i think OP just wants to not show up the last 2 weeks, honestly i have people who show up for their last 2 weeks and put in no effort, might as well just ghost.

Start clearing out your shyt. Burn thru the sick days now. But make sure they actually pay out on the vacation days if that is actually their policy

No science to it. Give your company good lead time you're leaving. I would just pocket the vacation time pay.

Sounds like someone is just going to lose the time.

It’s not likely that they would approve vacation your last week. Especially if there is any knowledge transfer.

I’d prefer not to burn bridges.

Don’t most companies give you your PTO if you give 4 weeks notice?

 

[Coco Loco]

I ALWAYS do this. I put my leave in first, get it approved then hit em with the razzle dazzle

My old company you had to work your full two weeks if you gave proper notice in order to be paid for unused leave. If you left before then, they wouldn’t pay out any banked leave.

I planned ahead since I knew I was leaving months beforehand and used all my sick time and most of my leave before putting in my two weeks notice.

I didn't trust my old job the last time this happened so I switched to part time worked two jobs and just used all my leave up then left.
