Went to H.R and the h.r girl sed that she wasn’t sure and to go speak to the shop steward. Went to speak to shop steward and he told me that he wasn’t sure and that my best bet would be to just complete the 5 years (march 2020)and use the days. That way I’ll have some kind of pension. Came on brown cafe and was told to use meth and set loose the blusiness lol
To be fair, you brought up "loosing the blusiness", I just meme-ified it. The thing is with questions like these, no one here will have the answer you are looking for without a lot more information. I can tell you that where I am, we accrue sick, vacation, and optional time. Once you accrue it, it's yours. It has to be paid out to you if you take the time off for the purpose intended, or if you quit/get fired. In the case of option days, they pay out on your anniversary if you didn't take them all in the previous year, and sick time can be cashed out if you have accrued more than 240 hours (I think, that may not be accurate, but it's close).
Telling you all that probably doesn't help though, because you are likely under a different supplement, and your state laws probably differ. So we like to have fun while trying to drop a hint about the reality of what they are asking to people who ask questions like these.
