      I'm going on vacation in August for a week. Probably the longest I've ever taken at one time. I'm not a big vacation person haha. I like to work.

      Still hard to imagine. We are forced by law to take at least 12 days in a row once a year here.

      Say - What?

      Oh I would go nuts.... after two days I'm miserable.. I have to be doing something..

        That is SO commonly not even allowed in the US!

            Yep, it was a huge pain for me to get 3 weeks for my traveling vacation.

                Only found a PDF source in English

                Federal German Paid Leave Act
                ยง 7 Paragraph 2, second sentence:

                "Where the vacation days cannot be granted consecutively for these reasons and the employee has a claim to vacation of more than 12 working days, one portion of the vacation shall comprise at least 12 consecutive working days."

                      If I asked for a 12 day vacation, they'd A) find a replacement in that time B ) Call me on vacation...

                              What am I doing right now? Fighting with RingCentral for the last 7 days to attempt to get them to address a problem we have been experiencing with outgoing faxes when it goes through the Fax "Printer". Happens on multiple computers, multiple files, etc not constrained to 1 environment. They escalated it, deescalated it due to it being a problem with the file (even though i told them it happened on mutiple files), escalated it again, and desecalated it due to lack of troubleshooting. Then they want me to repeat the hour+ of testing we did on Friday. All the while promising me call backs every step of the way and never calling me back.

                              sorry needed to vent, I cant wait for our PBX upgrade and for me to take all of this back in-house.

                                        Well it would make sense to use a pencil if they were using a scan card system.

                                        But seriously, talk about making it easy to change votes around...

                                            I can't believe that... really. Here, like in every country (at least I thought so), you have to use a ball pen or something that can't be erased like a pencil.
