So what happens if I drop a 15:45 3-day, and have scheduling pull that much time from my "vacation bank time"? Which week does this come from? Do we just tell them which one we want?
Also, this would leave 8:45 left in a typical VAC week (not primary or secondary.) How does that work when you get into that vacation month for PBS purposes?
It's not quite 3 days remaining (at 3:30/day) but more than 2. Seems like it would have to be treated differently whether you're REG or RES.
This is a nice thing to keep in mind for the extra 4th or 5th week that always seems to fall in February.

With vacation move up, vacation slide and vacation any bids, I get days off I want. When used in conjunction with the full service bank it all washes out at the end of the year and my pay is exactly even and my QOL is much improved. There are some nice green slip benefits to if used correctly but that’s the 400 level and graduate stuff.
Are you saying I can PD a 3 day trip in January, and get paid for it from my vacation bank time, and still retain the full 7 days in say March? I would just get paid 15:45 (or the value of the trip) less for those 7 days?
Are you basically just choosing when you want to get paid for the VAC time?

So if I bid reserve in March, how are the X days pro-rated? Seems like this may be a workaround to get more time off if you don’t mind going lower on pay in one or both months?
Say I choose to take the pay/credit in January. Now those vacation days would be worth less in March. Do we still enter the X day table in the same row regardless of the value of the days?
