Ideally, I'd like to come out ahead by a few days. In the world of ambiguity, does this cross over to "abuse" in your mind?


No. In fact, I wouldn’t even consider taking 7-8 weeks/year as abusing it.

And what would you interpret as "abuse" if this were the policy where you worked?

I’d consider “abuse” as someone decided to only work 3 days a week & taking PTO every Monday & Friday or something similar.

This was actually the only thing they mentioned that it isn't designed to take shorter work weeks. As long as we're getting our work done, and our manager approves, we're in the clear. I'm going to start by shooting for 6 weeks this year, then 7 next year, and maybe go up one week intervals every year after until they say something.

You're about to have the "I never take a day off" brigade up your arse for this one.

Me either. 6 weeks a year for those not on unlimited is not rare at all for executive positions. I had unlimited I would expect 8+ weeks a year but would certainly make sure my boss is on the same page.

An unlimited policy under a boss who expects I take less than 6 is worthless.
