Strict sandwich leave: Not sure what this means.

Looked it up. It's a totally ridiculous policy IMHO. Here's an example:

You ask for this Friday off. You ask for next Monday off. You already had the weekend off.
They approve it. Four days of leave are deducted from your allotment.

It means weekends sandwiched by leave count as leave. They're burning your leave for days that you already had off.

The password thing is double-edged. Let them change it and they'll pick something easy to guess. Don't let them change it and they'll put a post-it note with the password on the laptop because they can't remember it. Letting the user change it, but enforcing strength requirements is about the best you can do before going to biometrics or physical keys.

Wow. If that's what sandwich leave is, then I agree with this guy!

Sadly, I doubt there are any good guys in this scenario.

It's a bit much. But I've also never felt the need to try to "sandwich" anything. Why take both days off? Take Thursday off if you want a four day weekend. Or don't, and enjoy a three day weekend. Five day "weekend" is silly.

Because most people plan "Events" on the weekends, so if you need to travel and don't want to be rushing there and back, its a smart idea to take Fri/Mon off so you can spend each of those days traveling for whatever was planned and have time to relax and get into the groove of whatever is going down.

If my buddy has a wedding on Saturday two states over, I'll drive friday, party saturday, sober up sunday, and then go home monday. And then I am not limping into work exhausted from a long trip I had to push through.

Because Monday is culturally speaking a psychological barrier for many.

post-it note

I think it was the NSA which would do regular mandatory password changes and then occasionally throw you out of your office to do a physical search for things like passwords on post-its. But yes, people choose awful passwords all the time, I assume it's even worse when it's protecting assets that aren't even theirs. Having strict password policies in the workplace makes sense.
