I get 2 weeks paid vacation, 10 days paid sick days and 10 days paid personal days per calendar year. But I let clients know that just because I get them does not mean I will use them (personal /sick days), I just have two young children of my own and I am the one who has to take them to appointments and take care of them when they are sick. My husband can not take time off of work. I do my best to make sure my kids appointments are on the same days. I also let clients know that if I do not use them, I will not be transferring the to the next year.
