I've been in your same situation many times over the years. Massive amounts of built up vacation and personal day time not used. I always hope they will just pay the weeks and refresh the bank, so to speak. But usually they say you need to use those hours and take the time off. And then sit home bored for weeks. The only way to get a 'pay out' of the built up time is to leave, which I have strategically done a couples time knowing I would be leaving anyways. If you really have nothing to do on a vacation, it is really boring after the first couple days after you have cleaned your closet and re-organized your cupboards...COs should just let employees take the pay out.
