This time, it's not personal

Here's one contractual change to keep in mind as you're submitting your vacation requests: The “floating holiday,” also known as the “personal day,” also known as the “birthday,” is now known as just another vacation day. So if you had three weeks of vacation and one floating holiday, for example, now you have three weeks and one day of vacation. This change was requested by Journal Sentinel accountants, who apparently wanted fewer varieties of beans to count.
