What a great program - except now there will be all these triathletes going to work sick to save on sick days to fund a new tri-bike!

haha...im not sure how long it will take me to save up enough time...probably a year or two, but i think it would be worth the wait.
i wonder if they would cover the purchase of this...

At my company, we can "cash out" any combination of our sick pay and/or vacaton as long as we leave 40 hrs in sick pay. I get 3 weeks vacation a year and don't always use it. Last year, I cashed out some vacation pay to buy my new bike. :) I figured I would get more stress relief from years of riding than from a weeks vacation so I think it was a good trade.
This year, I'll probably use some of it for new camera equipment. Why, oh why, did I pick such expensive hobbies! :rolleyes:

I've been ebaying everything under the sun to try to get cash together for a pair of zipps..... i hope to have them before NYC Tri, if not by them definately before Timberman.....
I swear... i see rabid animals on the street and the first thing i think is "how much is that worth on ebay?"
yea.... it's getting bad.
im thinking about getting a job with the county...if i do so, you can cash in all accrued sick leave for money to use for excercise equipment. though it will take a while, i have found a way to fund my zipps.
anyone else have a program like this?
