My employer Autodesk is generous in providing employees the time to wind down and regenerate the creative energy. Every 4 years Autodesk employees earn a six week sabbatical (time off). I have had one sabbatical while at Autodesk and did some camping with the family as well as just some relaxing time around the house. I am now starting to count down until I am eligible for my next sabbatical which is January 19th, 2006. I will probably take the sabbatical the summer of 2006 but I am not sure what I will be doing during this time.

Time until I am eligible for my next sabbatical:
6 months, 16 days
or 200 days
or 17,280,000 seconds
or 288,000 minutes
or 4,800 hours
or 28 weeks (rounded)
