At work we have a timesheet that salaried employees have to fill out for their “unproductive” time.  That includes vacation, sick leave, etc. 

Really?  How often are “unproductive” when taking a day off?  For me, I’m usually taking the day off so I can get some things done.  Even when the vacation is a “vacation”, I still wouldn’t say that I was “unproductive”.  It’s not like you take the day off to sit in front of the TV all day.  Ok, maybe some of you do, but I don’t.

Anyway, I think the whole idea of a company keeping track of “unproductive” time is extremely ridiculous because as far as I can tell none of my time is unproductive.
