— Donated unused annual leave – Jason Miller (DIERSEN: While I worked for the federal government for almost 30 years, my Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates were furious that I earned annual leave. SEE: https://www.opm.gov/policy-data-oversight/pay-leave/leave-administration/fact-sheets/annual-leave/ They did not want me to use any of it and they were beyond furious when I donated my unused annual leave.)
https://federalnewsradio.com/workforce/2017/09/donated-leave-easing-of-contracting-rules-latest-part-of-hurricane-harvey-response-efforts/
(FROM THE THE ARTICLE: Federal employees now have an official way they can donate their time and money to their colleagues impacted by Hurricane Harvey and the following tropical storms. The Office of Personnel Management set up an Emergency Leave Transfer Program, which lets employees in the executive and judicial branches transfer unused annual leave to their federal colleagues within the same agency or another organization, who need additional time off. “We continue to reach out to impacted agencies to gather more information on the number of employees impacted by Harvey,” acting OPM Director Kathleen McGettigan said in a Sept. 1 statement. “As always, OPM stands ready to assist federal agencies in assisting their missions and in responding to the needs of federal employees.” OPM decided a emergency leave transfer program was warranted after talking to other agencies about the impact the storms have had on their employees.)
