Only heard a brief portion, but can anyone explain the way vacation is going to work now?
If you are asking what I think you are....vacations will be handled by your terminal manager. I remember the CLT and ATL regions being the test mule for that, but I thought it had been put into place company wide already. It works really well for the most part here in GVL. I hated calling central dispatch to ask for a day off b/c they never wanted to give it to you. I've had a day I wanted be denied, only to be cut that same day. If that is not what you are talking about, I apologize.
Just got home, and got pulled into the meeting when I got back from my run. Basically the current vacation policy will stay in effect until Jan. 1, 2010. At that time everyone starts with 0 vacation days earned unless you rolled some over. To simplify it, let's say you have been here long enough to have 3 weeks of vacation. You will earn a week every 4 months. If you want to take 3 weeks off in January, you will still get paid for them, but if you quit before you accrued those 3 weeks you will owe the company money for the amount of days taken that you had not earned yet. You still start with the same 5 personal days though. It sounded more simple in my head......but pretty much if you don't plan on going anywhere, you have nothing to worry about.

You think they would have put out a press release to explain it a little better.
