Guys
The Company's giving all US employees a mandatory week off for their annual year end break Dec.22- 26.
Seeing as how I now have that Monday to Friday off, and I don't work weekends, I would have 9 days straight without having to be at the office. As such I'm thinking of hopping to Indiana with the missus to visit her family there on the weekend of the 19th -21st before heading further East, South, or West (you never know). Wondering if you guys have something planned where I can just pop in or so.

Hey if there's nothing planned, that is fine just keep an eye out for a Sunset Orange Metallic Avalanche with black cladding and Transformers decals  speeding by.
 
Mandatory week off....  :eek:
Take off or we'll fire you.  :beating:
Ok, ok I won't come in.  :D
Not sure how you put up with those work conditions.  :laugh:
 
So you coming to the Dec 13th get together then in Michigan? I know it is a week earlier but still...

Shouldn't be that far for you depending on where you are in Indiana.

Yes it is like that. Unfortunately I have to use my PTO hours to get paid even though it is a mandatory week off....... If you've used all your PTO hours before then, well you just don't get paid so throughout the year I have to plan to keep at least 40 hours of PTO available for just that.

I'll still be in MN on the 13th. It's a 12 hour drive for me in the best of conditions since there is no straight shot to cross Lake Michigan from WI right now. With Old Man Winter here however, it could possibly be much longer and I'll have to be back to work on Monday.
Unfortunately I'll have to pass on that one.

LOL Now I'm thinking if Lake Michigan would freeze over, I could drive right across but it'll have to be one helluva cold winter.

Well that sucks. Thought they were giving you a free paid week.

I'll be heading to Indianapolis guys
Depending on if we have Dr appointments the day you come through (we seem to have  a lot of them) we could meet you for lunch or dinner in Anderson, about 25 miles north of Indy on I 69.
 
Indy can be a doable, between Thanksgiving and New Year it's hard to plan things.


 
Hey Elliot we can meet up with ya Fri or Sat for supper if ya want, were on the south end of town, about 3 miles from the BIG christmas tree in the center of town!

I'm going to the Michigan Holiday Dinner so I can probably make it down Sunday afternoon.
