EASTERBROOK, Circuit Judge.

Employees who worked a minimum number of hours in one calendar year (the work requirement) and one day in the next year (the vesting requirement) became entitled to a paid vacation (or cash in lieu of leave) during that year. The length of the vacation depended on the number of years the employee had been with the firm and the number of hours worked in the accumulation year; these details are unimportant.
