Correct.

400 hours of vacation time is going to cost an employer a fine pretty penny if that person decides to leave, or is fired.

At that point, most are truly happy to see an employee use up a good portion of that time.

140 hours seems to be the cap around these parts.

Before I realized I could sell back my yearly sick leave time, I had racked up about a 800 hours of sick, time. Now, I just sell back my current yearly sick time and get a nice "bonus" in February. Still have those 800 hours. I guess I'm set if my head falls off, or something else bad happens to me....
