Put my 2 weeks in...
So after working for a company for 5 years I just put my 2 weeks notice in that I was leaving. In this 5 year time frame I have acquired 14days of vacation. Is it wrong to ask if I can cash out those earned days? If they say they can't do that would it be wrong to ask if I could take a couple days off before I go?
It just sucks loosing vacation time that I earned and won't be able to use. Even going to a new job I just can't take time off (maybe at the end) but not when I'm just starting out.
Any advice would be great
Re: Put my 2 weeks in...
I would check with HR to see if there's a policy. Usually they have some sort of policy as to how it's handled.
I would have found out the policy before putting in notice and taken time off before then.

Get it on!
I got the impression that this was 14 days left over/accrued, not that she only got 14 days (almost 3 weeks) of vacation in 5 years. In fact, the fact that she's able to carry it over and not 'use it or lose it" in a year is pretty good, too.
Three weeks a year of vacation is pretty standard, i would think.
OP - ask HR about what the policy is about paying out unused vacation.
Actually I only gain 2 days per year I am there. So I started out with 3 vacation days when I started and then every year after I got 2 days added on. So yeah over the course of 5 years I earned 15 days but already took a day off for the interview.
The new job I earn hours so basically if I don't take any time off at the end of the year with the new job I have 15 days .
