Funny this month I awarded 6 days off without trying, now I need it and probably won't get it lol. Any advice?
Ive told it which days i want off and that has worked in the past. Just make sure that you give it enough days to get you to 65 with the seniority you have. If youre senior enough you can just tell it you want two four days any other weeks that are worth more than 20.25. Couple of different ways to skin the cat.
