No, you are only allowed to accumulate so much total annual leave. And if you exceed that amount at the end of the physical year,
It is lost.

Yep, this also applies to sick leave, but at least the overage is converted to annual leave at a ratio of 5:1, 5 hours of sick leave overage is converted to 1 hour of annual leave.

Do you lose all of it, or only the overage?

Mother in law bought us the season pass for Elitch Gardens, not fond of going places that I can't carry, but I feel obligated. Heading there in a few, blah!

Bedding in whole sheets and trying to get them in the right spot is fun

Just the overage on the annual and the loss due to the conversion rate on the sick leave overage.

Looks neat....haven't attempted doing tile yet

I learned the hard way to use backer board and install per manufacturer instructions. Save yourself the pain and do it that way.

Good luck with the project, it looks like you're doing well as far as I can tell.

It's been such a long time for me, I can't remember if I can do tile decently or not. Last several jobs were big enough that I farmed out the work, but some small stuff coming up I might attempt myself.

The post whore thread.

sliced open my left thumb pretty good doing food prep tonight. The bad is it bled a lot and when I jerked my hand back blood sprayed everywhere in the kitchen. The good, I had a first aid kit with adequate gauze, neosporin and bandaids on hand to take care of it.

On the bright side, I got a cool real life Dexter lesson in how blood spatter works sans the homicide portion.

They do that to my wife, then don't allow them to schedule the time off, or get called in when on call.

Just go back from a week in Orlando, IBM tech event.

Mandatory fun was a private party at Universal studios Thursday night.

Ouch! Once I dropped the blade from a food processor onto my foot. You wouldn't think it could cause that much damage, but it does.

Maybe not emergency room, but you should go to see if stitches are needed.

I tried to get stitches out of the emergency room and couldn't do it. I went and it cost me $7,000 fucking dollars. I don't want to discourage anyone, as I didn't try very hard.

Sorry you got bit tonight, 303.

My hands have been layed open by blade/sharp edge, or grinder cutoff wheels many times over the years, and it's no fun. At least slices heal quicker than other types.

Luckily its on the fingerprint side and went at a slight angle and it's not very deep.

I dropped a loaded g43 mag on my toe a few weeks ago and it hurt a lot more than I'd have thought. Glad it wasn't a 1911 mag or I'd have lost the leg -- or so 1911 shooters would like me to believe.

One ups?

I ripped off my big toenail changing a spare tire while wearing sandals.

Whilst pulling the tire out from under the truck, my toe was in the way and got caught by the tread.

Also counts as a dumbass moment.

Kinda painful too.

Some of you may remember that I did a handstand and my M&P40 compact came out of the holster and landed rear sight first on one of my knuckles while my hand was pressed flat against the concrete. I don't remember that fondly at all.

Yea, gross. He is not expressing enough pain emotion there.

Shortly after it grew back (took 9+ months), I lost both big toenails to "runners toe" bruised nail beds, even though anyone who has seen me knows I no longer run. Those are just now back to normal.

How about dropping a chest freezer on your big toe while wearing flip flops, ever seen squashed, split in several places tomatoe ? And yes, the spelling was intentional.
Wasn’t me, but I was on the other end of the freezer when it happened.

If you reach my age without being cut, bruised, ground, smashed, gouged, pressed, stepped on, thrown off, thrown into, crashed, crashed into, knocked down, knocked out, knocked blurry, caved in on, run over, tried to breath water, burned, blistered, breathed in toxic substances, pulled muscles, ligaments, torn tendons, sprained ankles, wrists, knees, elbows, necks, broken bones, had surgery to repair injuries, been beat up, delivered a beating, been shot at, falling in and out of love, prayed to God for your life, you get the idea, life must have been boring. And a lot less painful.

I am not bragging, just reflecting.
