Everyone's work rules are just a way to calculate your compensation. You do what you want with your days off, whether that is working more or spending it with their children.
And that's called double dipping. When something it dropped and still paid for it, then you pick something else up and again paid for that, it's not the same. Sorry.
Point being, and what you conveniently ignored, is that work rules are just a quantifier for your actual pay rate. For example, a contract can have rules that prevent what you call double dipping. But the corresponding pay rate would probably be higher. Same with maximizing time off with vacation. You may not be able to do it with certain contract rules but the trade off would be a higher pay rate. For example, my contract has a B fund. But the only reason why is because the company didn't want to have a high pay rate in the book. Is having a B fund also not having work ethic?
