We have a use it or lose it Paid Time Off policy, so I'm done on Friday until the end of the year. I'll be back to work on 01/02.
In 'Mericuh, but I work for a subsidiary of a three letter German company. The PTO policy is from the subsidiary.

Wow - you're off until February?
(Yes, yes, I know: 'merican date formats. But if it's a German company, it could be worth a try...)

I like the old system - each date had its on representation so it was easier to tell them apart.
(except the Euro version - which is way too backwards). 'Till you change your mind, it'll be yyyymmdd and that puts and end to it.

Actually the Euro version is more logical ddmmyyyy - smallest to largest.
|
|
|
|
|
In decimal numbers (and others like hexadecimal), the most significant digits come first. I prefer the same for dates: yyyy-mm-dd.
Most of my files are named in that fashion, so when I open a folder, I see the content in chronological order.
|
|
|
|
|
I agree and have always done that. But when writing dates in non-IT environments ddmmyy is still the preferred option.
|
|
|
|
|
Then that should be mmddyyyy since every month has at least 28 days but there are only 12 months.

Taking that to its logical conclusion, your preferred date/time order is:
- Month;
- Hour;
- Day;
- Minute;
- Second;
- Time-zone;
- Year;

It's quite brilliant that Euro Version - so long as you sort from right-to-left
That's seems very sensible.
Let's see . . . what am I doing on the 19th? Never mind if it's this month (or this year) - that's not nearly as important.

I want to know where is my SeaLab?
Yes, I am old enough to have watched SeaLab 2020 on Saturday mornings.

From Friday evening to 2nd of January 2020: R&R. So I get to do a bit of work on making my own wine, very enjoyable and a complete change from programming.

I'm off from 21st December through until 22nd January.

Christmas and New Year at home for a change? Excellent - from what I remember you don't get many of those.
Have a great time!

Yep, i can't remember the last time I had them both off. Last year I had to leave the house on boxing day at 6am, so never enjoyed christmas day, and then was working new year.
Planning on excessive food and drink this time, especially new year!

Hogman-wah-hay-hay!
Enjoy!

Probably ... at least up to the 2nd.
If I can just make the darn HR website work.
I'd rather be phishing!

Since I am stuck in 'murica for the foreseeable future (or at least until my lottery ticket wins something substantial) I don't get Boxing Day (they actually think it is to do with cleaning up the boxes the Xmas presents came in - barbarians!). I save up most of my limited vacation time for the xmas to new year period so I am off from the 21st of December until the 6th of January, yea!
Merry Christmas and a Gravy New Year to all!
- especially you OG, enjoying sunny Wales!
