Right now I get 3 weeks paid vacation/year, 3 personal days/year and one sick day/month. They are accrued except for the personal days, you get 3 in January and have to use them or lose them by the end of the year. I use about 2 weeks/year and a day here and there of vacation, and burn up the 3 personal days. I take a week's vacation at a time twice a year and I usually stay at home and catch up on house stuff. DH only gets one week/year combined vacation/sick so we really don't get to travel much. I keep telling him he needs to get a job with better time off bennies.
We can accrue unlimited sick days and for me right now 320 vacation hours.
I take time off when I'm sick. My job demands alot of concentration and good judgement, which isn't there when I'm not feeling well. It's better to take the time off than make bad errors.
