In our current capitalist hellworld, companies looking for any way to spare an expense will think B is fine, as will the people conditioned to think this is normal. The layman commoner with a normal sense of humanity and compassion would think A is the logical choice because duh.

I mean, if you have early release on Christmas Eve, for example, but you took that day off as annual leave, I don't think you'd get a 0.5 day of annual leave back. In that sense, I understand it?

If the company wants to be a jerk, they can do B (for exempt workers, anyway). They can even force employees with PTO (who weren't planning to use it) to take a day for a snow day. It's pretty dumb.
But anyone with any decency would do A. --- another place and time, without a great divide, and we could be flying deadly high ... Copied to Clipboard!

It's B at my company, but I'd be inclined to just bill my time as a snow day instead of a vacation day for that one day. The policy serves no function other than to minimize losses from inclement weather, but that's not really my problem.

B would be like if you took 10 days of vacation on June 1 and the company shut down on June 2 so then you don't get any of your vacation paid out because you "used" it already

Realistically it should be A but most companies will go with B.
It probably also partially depends on how the company treats an inclemental weather day in regards to being payable. At my company sometimes they are paid days off, sometimes they are not. When they are not then employees are given the option to burn a days holiday in order to get paid. ... Copied to Clipboard!

3 people so far on this board (plus my wife) picked B. So did my employer. A few of my friends got screwed. I picked B. Its like buying stocks, you dont get a refund if one suddenly plummeted today because suddenly you vastly overpaid yeatersay. You booked vacation days, which are guaranteed. If something happens and the rest of the company is off, that was a spontaneous event that others couldn't plan for. Your days were secured from the start - I dont believe there needs to exist an insurance policy where you got all your vacation days but we need to tally up any unexpected events and divide unfairly or poorly planned vacation time for refunds. This is like getting a 30 minute scheduled break for lunch then being upset because someone elses lunch was extended 10 minutes due to a fire drill. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Dude practice your analogies. But yes we get that you think using vacation days is some form of lottery. We're telling you you're wrong. A vacation day is a contract that gives you 8 hours of salary for free, with some restrictions. That's why when the company goes under they still have to pay it out.

How do companies typically handle a person cancelling a vacation day and just coming in to work? Where I work I would get the vacation day back even if on short notice but I'm guessing that's atypical?

So... if I go and buy something for $1 then convince you its worth $100 and you buy it from me... am I stealing from you or are you a moron. depends on how you convinced me. maybe Im a moron or maybe you committed fraud. Either way I dont think its quite comparable to what were talking about here. imagine you pre-ordered a game, then the day before the game is set to release the publisher announces its actually going to be free to play. I think gamers would rise up if their pre-orders werent refunded. Sure if the company planned to take the day off and didnt tell you that you booked a vacation day during that time then sure i get your side, but if something spontaneous happens (power outage for example) and they send everyone home, that's just tough s*** man. I thought this was about preemptively cancelling a day rather than sending people home in the middle of one. If its just part of a day that gets cancelled I can understand not giving back the vacation day. --- For your BK_Sheikah00. At least Kupo has class and doesn't MESSAGE the people -Dr Pizza ...

B is theft.B isn't theft in most situations. If the office closes down and everyone is paid as if there, you should get your day back. If the office closes down and the people who didn't use a vacation day aren't paid and you were, then it was valid. You should be able to change your mind and come in if it's a single vacation day.
