At the risk of sounding like a heartless bitch, one of the reasons I've lost vacation in the last 8 years is because I have a job that is backed up by one co-worker. And in the last 8 years, each of the two people who have held that position seem to always take FMLA time off just when I've had time scheduled off.
I'm not a big fan of hot weather, so I tend to schedule most of my time before May and after September. I don't know what it is about that position that keeps attracting applicants with health issues.
