I'm not sure) while we're abroad and then used between tours, like vacation time. So we're still earning our salary, but naturally have to pay our own housing. How much home leave one can take depends on some horse trading between you, your losing post and your gaining post, and between overseas tours there's a 20 work day minimum.

My gut says "no", but then I can't see how hundreds of FSOs and FSS can budget for a month off work without getting paid, especially since most don't have homes to go "home" to.Sara See Morehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14885541121412675423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7410603007241586537.post-2797107182484937392015-04-29T05:49:02.286-06:002015-04-29T05:49:02.286-06:00Great post for someone considering the career.

I am an EFM working on an MPA. I am currently doing a pseudo research project (ii is "pseudo" in that we don't have time to do a complete research project, we are just "going through the motions". One of the motions is to do an interview. I'd like to interview your husband. It should take about 30 minutes. If he'd be willing to talk to me, he can reach me at: Martin_K_Phillips on Hotmail. <br />BTW - I love your ideas for home leave. I always have to bite my tongue when I hear people complain about "having to take" home leave!Martin and Marlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07823380765575573442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7410603007241586537.post-15218626613932430962015-02-08T07:52:28.271-07:002015-02-08T07:52:28.271-07:00DB Gates - Sure, I'd be happy to chat with you...DB Gates - Sure, I'd be happy to chat with you.

Yes, they surprise us that at their ages, they are just getting more and more confident about it all and are so open to the new environments and trusting that we'll be there to care for them. We do everything we can to keep their routines consistent to help them through the changes.
