I held the position of Exec VP from Aug. 2004 to Jan. 2005 at the rate of $70,000. I held the position of Pres/CEO from Feb. 2005 to Jan. 2006 at the rate of $85,000. I held the position of Exec VP/COO from Feb. 2006 to Mar. 2006 at the rate of $85.000. That position was eliminated and I was offered VP of Adm. at the rate of $65,000. in March 2006. Two weeks later that position was eliminated.

I accrued 31 vacation days during that tenure. How is my previous employer supposed to pay the accrued vacation? at the rate it was earned or at the rate I was getting paid when the position was eliminated? :confused:

Any way the contract specifies or, if the contract does not specify, any way they determine, or not at all. There is no law in Florida requiring the payout of accrued vacation, either conditionally or unconditionally.
