Same - I’ve never taken a sick day for the past 3 years at the firm. I wish I cared less.

I know people who don’t take vacation or work all the time while taking, people who never take sick and personal days, working till midnight every day, sending emails on Sunday night. It’s their choice! Thankfully, not mine 😀. At the end of the day it is a $20 difference per paycheck.

I have been considering going back to school but I left active duty 15 years ago and my Post 9/11 expired this summer.

Either way, I'm curious if anyone would know why I only received 25 months of education benefits. I was 100% active for 4 years, 3 deployments to Iraq, honorable discharge etc. And wondering if there is any way to extend my benefits and get the 36-48 months that seems to be standard.
