[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]state of maryland employee[/quote]

15 days annual leave (you stop earning when your balance reaches 30 days)
15 days sick leave (unlimited accrual while in state service)
12 days for major holidays (including the day after Thanksgiving!)
6 personal days (do not roll over year to year)

I also earn comp time even though I’m a salaried (not hourly) employee. If I work a 50 hour week, the extra 10 hours become comp time that I can take at a later date. Comp time expires a year after it is earned, and there isn’t a limit on how much you can earn.

All in all, it’s a pretty sweet deal being a state employee. The health insurance options are amazing, too (low or no deductible plans). Oh, and a pension which the state contributes about 20% of my annual salary to, and then a mandatory 7% is deducted and contributed from my paycheck. Then there’s the optional 403(b) retirement contributions I make.

I used to think feds had it pretty good, but not after becoming a state employee.

Sorry, made a mistake. Up to 75 days of annual leave can be carried over from one year to the next. Not 30. [/quote]
