I have about 3 weeks of vacation time left at my current job. I am planning to resign such that December 12, 2008 is my last day, and take vacation until the end of the year. Obviously I will get paid until December 31, 2008. But since I have some leftover days, could I technically be considered an employee on January 1, 2009, at which point I could take my 3 weeks of vacation time for 2009, and get paid for those extra 3 weeks?

I assume it depends on the company and I will have to ask payroll, but is it typical to allow that?

Hey everyone. I’ve been working at my job for a month and at my job i slowly accumulate vacation time. I havent taken any vacation days off. How long should i wait before i take a few days off?? What would be the proper etiquette in this situation? It’s a white collar job if that matters.
