1. Pro-rated depending on how long you're here....less than a week if hired now. You get 2 weeks your 2nd yr.
2. Yes...tell your chief and if you can't trade/give it away, they can give you leave without pay for your trip....or call in sick (literally what my ACP told me to do in one of my Probie meetings)
3. Basically 10% of your trip total. Credit 100 trips, get 10 in your sick bank. So the first few months suck if you don't have anything in your bank and are sick...basically unpaid.
