It is not acceptable cashing the vacation days, especially if a member picks days instead of weeks. Those individual days are paid 8 hours therefore we do not agree that the days pay less than the weeks which pays the run pay.
We recommend to fellow co workers in the upcoming vacation pick to choose weeks instead of days.
Why - imagine for example if you want to cash 2 weeks based on your run pay then the average you may get is $2,400. However if you pick days and you want to cash in those days you may get $1,300.
That is a huge amount of money to give away - it is your money it is better in your wallet. We recommend for you to pick weeks in the event that you want to cash them you get run pay, and you can enjoy the holiday season pleasantly.
