Of course. I also take almost a month's worth of vacation every year. The way my shift schedule rotates I can often take a single day off and go away for more than a week, making it easy to accrue leave if I'm only slightly picky with my schedule. The last few years I've started to pick up skiing.

I was sick for several weeks last year, which sucked but my sick leave covered it easily. That will get me 5% on my pension per year accrued at retirement and I'm still on pace to get a year. Partial years are counted but that's the easy number to remember

During the entirety of the pandemic we obtained free leave for a positive COVID test for the duration of the illness.
