Need to vent a bit! A co-worker who has been here for 8 years had told me late last year she was going to ask for 3 weeks vacation because she felt she deserved it. I told her that wouldn't be fair at all because I and another co-worker did not get our 3 weeks until we had been here 10 years. I found out today she has 3 weeks vacation. I and my other over 10 veteran (I've been here 17 and she 16) are not happy at all, but there really isn't anything we can do about it. It isn't a written policy. It just erks me because this person is so negative, not a team player at all, doesn't do anything extra, and doesn't help anyone unless it would benefit her, yet she was given this benefit! And the partners even comment on her poor attitude. Just sucks! I'm ready to leave now! Glad she can use her days from her extra week to be off 2 weeks at Christmas so we won't have to see her!

So sad to hear but that is the way things go. Sometimes you just need to detach yourself from what is happening in the office and just concentrate on yourself. Good luck!

Vent away but maybe you should bring it up to the powers that be in a very nice professional way and see if you could go for 4 weeks now that it's been set with her 3 weeks after just 8 years. Never hurts to try!

It's so frustrating when things like that happen, but you're right there's nothing you can do about her vacation. But, you can enjoy that extra time she's gone. Make it a fun time at the office, so it's like a little vacation for you guys too. :)
