I was on vacation during the flood.

Yeah, I would have gotten some days off without vacation, but I also would have spent them in the basement of my in-law's house shoveling out sludge.

I'm pretty sure most people would have rather been on vacation..

Same timeline as provided earlier this week. They will try to turn the power on Thursday afternoon.

It came off as extremely petty and I wouldn't doubt that it affected his standing with the group.

I would let this one go.
Agreed. I was affected by the flood and if I heard someone griping about being on vacation and not getting Free Flood Days Off!, I'd want to punch that person in the nose. And I'd think he/she is an a$$hole, forever.

Same thing if this fire had me out of my house for a week.

Anyone who spends vacation time fretting about co-workers getting three days off because of a fire is probably doing vacation wrong.

Anyone else without Internet or cable downtown? We are just north of Shaw building by the Peace Bridge.
