serves them right for getting pissed

Yes. I've got nothing gainst the term annual leave - it might be a useful term internally within a company to describe why someone is away from work - I just don't like it when someone from a different organisation tells you that they are on 'annual leave'.

use of the term 'annual leave' when explaining to someone (who does not work in the same business as you) why you won't be available on a certain day. e.g. "sorry, I can't make it on Thursday, I'm on annual leave" It's not relevant to me why you are away. I don't care. If you were away for...
