Ohio Official Docked Vacation Time For Stolen Tape

Lucas123 writes "The missing tape, stolen from an intern's car, contained data on all 64,467 state employees, 19,388 former employees and 47,245 Ohio taxpayers. The state believes the incident will cost them $3 million. So after four months of deliberation, the Ohio Department of Administrative Services announced today that they decided to take a week's vacation away from Jerry Miller, their payroll team leader and the guy in charge of the missing data."

Re:A week?

Wow. In that case, I get 27 days vacation a year. I think 25 is the legal minimum in the UK.
As for holidays, I'd guess about 20 a year - Christmas, Easter, Bank hols, etc.
Sick - well, I think it differs per employer - mine is about 24 I think.

No wonder you guys never get a chance to leave the US and see what the rest of the world is about.

Um, no.

The oldest living organisms, yes, are in the US, but they are the bristlecone pine trees. The highest temperature recorded on earth was in Libya. If you are going to brag about where you live, at least be accurate, please.
