Only 448 for me. 208/year earned. 240 on books. If I deploy, they wave the 240 limit... But when you come back Stateside, as you burn, that limit drops (down eventually to 240).
Yup. I don't understand the kids that "burn it as fast as they earn it." You get raises, so hourly it's worth more on the books as your pay goes up. Well, I guess how you value your time...
They've already accounted the leave. It's just the carry and differences in raise they budget every year. It's all solvent. Well I hope. 😏
Sick leave is unlimited, but that's always flat 4 hours every two weeks no matter how much time in. That only goes against years of service, no cash at retirement. But... A nice insurance policy to save it up against catastrophic illness.
