Related to below-two weeks notice/vacation q?
Two weeks notice from tomorrow would be Friday the 24th. I'm scheduled for paid vacation the next week. Should I make my last day the day I return from vacation, even though my last day in the office will be a week earlier?
Re: Related to below-two weeks notice/vacation q?
I highly doubt they'll let you do that.
Check your state laws - they may have to pay out your unused vacation time, they may not.

Hmm.. okay. What would you suggest? I could give a month's notice instead, which is fine with me.
I don't think my state requires them to pay out unused time from what I'm finding.
Do you have a new job lined up? If not, I'd give notice when you return from your vacation.
Or - next week (Friday, the 17th) give a three week notice.

I'm not looking for another full time job. I coach two teams and train at my gym, so I'm just going to keep doing those things, so no worries there.
Unfortunately, I have to tell my boss today. Long story behind it, but he needs to know if he needs to hire someone as soon as possible. Basically, I was part time until a few weeks ago and now my only option is full time or nothing. We were supposed to meet Monday and he ended up being out until today.
You may have to ask your own HR department. We are not permitted to take any time off during our two week notice. Would you be able to give 3 weeks notice - that means one before and one after your vacation? I would also wait if you think they could or would tell you to take your one week leaving you with no vacation.
As for the payout of your vacation time, you should ask HR. We get paid out for vacation and OT hours but not for personal or sick time.
Check with HR. A lot of time the PTO payout question is governed by whether you accrue (earn) the time or are granted it. If you accrue the time, then typically you earn a certain number of hours earch pay period. The idea is that if you accrue the time, then you've earned it as part of your compensation and have to be paid out for it. If it's granted by the company, then it's not earned and doesn't have to be paid out.
To answer your question, I would give the month or not take the vacation. Since you don't have another job that you have to start, it's always best to leave on the best terms possible with your current manager. You never know when your paths will cross again.
