[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you give her 5 days off and let her work 20 hours on Saturday and Sunday it doesn't really feel like a vacation week does it? She should get her weekly payment for NO work.[/quote] Exactly! This is why the weekends off count as vacation days. If AP scheduled M-F off, she also gets the weekend off = 7 days. Do that 2x for 14 days total off. So that's why, by the same token, it's not 14 week days off. AP can't schedule Friday - Monday off and count it as just 2 days off, and do that 7 times. The weekend counts as time off, too so at least two those weekends would count as vacation days. The rest of the time in theory could be taken as long weekends, but then the HPs need to agree to it. This is why it's imperative to discuss it while matching! Noone want to get to the this discussion a few weeks in and realized the expectations are not aligned.[/quote]
