[QUOTE="Dustyroads, post: 622294, member: 22610"] Where I work, if we were to call in sick for 5 days, in fact anything beyond three days, then we can be required to see the company doctor to be approved to return to work after our extended illness. At that point, one would have to choose to lie to the company doctor about the "illness". Since we have to schedule our vacations about 9 months in advance, I would think one could pick a week to go to HI or anywhere else, without much of a problem. I think HI is open year round. As for popping the proposal, I think your spouse-to-be would be a little concerned that you would put your job on the line by lying to the company about a non-existant illness, so you could get an extra week of vacation on a tropical island. Honestly, I've always found it to be much easier and much more pleasant to just be honest with my management team, and when treated with that kind of respect, they usually try to accomodate special requests, such as yours. I can think of several drivers who have been in similar situations, and honesty is the best policy. [/QUOTE]
