Delta has DPMA which basically pays two years at full pay when you go out long term. Whats our bank cap? A lot less than two years. Frustrating to see an obviously better system be hampered by "this is how we have always done it" or the robot Marvin's who have never gotten sick. After kids in daycare and a few surgeries my sick bank is toast but at least a handful of people who routinely pull 18 days off have a big bank.
