Hey WizofOz,
I can see why you would be getting sick of this clown as having it laid out bare like this is not particularly pleasent. I have a bad feeling that a lot of what that clown says is pretty on the mark. Out of interest because you say you have all 42 days off this year and 28 over april/may and be honest here are your holdays in april/may quite close to being last two weeks/first two weeks? If they are then that is exactly what the clown was saying, you will still do close to 80 hours in each month so not really holidays are they? Are you counting a week or so of holdays before the end of march as your 42 days is so then you still only have about 30 days of leave in the leave year since leave year is april/april.
