HR and vacation days

OK...suffering some culture shock here, coming from a larger bank to a smaller one...I cannot believe the vacation policies here and the minute detail with which it is monitored...first of all, there is the 2 week requirement, which I know has been hashed out so many times here already...but then, if you have more than 2 weeks, and decide to split it up, you cannot take, for example, 2 Tuesdays...it must be 1 Monday 1 Tuesday etc. with no discretion or flexibility on the part of a department to coordinate. There are other things here with regard to time off, personal days, sick days etc. that are micromanaged to the nth degree...surely HR people have much better, more productive things to do than to keep up with such details. At my previous bank, you coordinated time off with your supervisor, and that was that...now I feel like I am back in the 19th century,..or earlier, with "Mr. Scrooge" peering over my shoulder. If I were so worried about being "abused" by my employees I would first stop to consider the caliber of employees that I had to begin with...there are other greater issues at stake if you can't trust people to manage time off appropriately. Just had to get this off my chest...and my hat is off to the many great HR people that take care of the important things without being micromanagers.
