I still got 6 vacation days from last year that will expire on the 6th of June... I'd be damned delighted if Classic releases before that, but I guess my hope is in vain lol. I'm getting 20 more vacation days as well btw and only got 10 days of vacation planned for november.
So HELL YEAH I'm taking some time off.
I'm hoping to take a 4 day weekend around the release.
I'm gonna try and drop a week of leave starting the day Classic releases, depending on how the timing and weekend placement works out I might stretch that out a bit longer. No-lifing it as much as I can, if I can hit 60 (unlikely) in the first 7-9 days that'd be great but I'm not gonna stress to much about it.
Day one is going to be crazy and I really don't want to miss it. If Launch o'clock is in the middle of the night I'll drag myself out of bed and login as soon as I'm able.
The Mrs and I are taking a week off of work to duo level together! Super hyped, just need a release date now
Luckily I work for a very large insurance company. So as long as you have to time, you can take it off. I'm also buying a house in October, so no vacations planned for a whole year means a ton of time saved up for me!
I'll definitely take 1 week. Most likely 2. And depending on how that all goes... maybe I'll be "sick" that 3rd week lol.
Now to just find someone to watch my dog for 7 days...
As time trickles by, my chances of being approved for extended time off during the summer is diminishing.
My entire team is going to be booking periods off because of ridiculous things like "Beautiful weather", "holidays" and "spending time with family". Ugh.
Don't they realise the time is required for playing a 15 year old video game?

Tell them to go ahead, it'll be cheaper without you ;).
With the way the Japanese academic year is structured I could be hitting a few weeks holiday or the peak of the exam stress depeding on luck, so here's hoping for the former..
Also saving all my available paid holidays this year for when the game is out!
I live an easy life, three six hour shifts a week. No need to plan a vacation for this. I will be no-lifeing it for some time to come after release.
I may have the perfect situation: having an internship at a PR firm during the summer and fall. However, the firm I'll be working at closes down a month from the middle of July to the middle of August. Going to be glorious.
yeah, im definitely planning some time off. we've got the release date now, which is right around the time i can take a paid vacation. but i cant decide if i want to be there on release day, or maybe wait a day or two for the insane lag/overpop to die down a bit.

This post did not age well :(
I work seasons, summer season for me at this particular gig ends last August.. nothing planned for the winter yet.. I get paid in retrospect (I get my August salary in September) so in other words; I’m free all September to #NoLife, with pay. Life is good
I will get 7 glorious days of Classic WoW before college starts back up.
