    Leave in the states is weird. In NZ I work 40h a week and I get 4 weeks of annual leave (vacation) and 10 sick days. The sick days can accrue up to 20 days, annual leave is infinite but lots of businesses try to encourage you to take it every year.

    When you change jobs all the annual leave is paid out.

    If you have 15 days of annual leave accrued and there’s a public holiday within 15 days of you leaving then you’re paid for that too.

      That sounds like a dream.

      Current job I can accrue maybe 2 weeks, and it’s a use it or lose it scenario. That two weeks is sick and vacation wrapped in one.

      We’re kinda fucked over here.
