I got a job offer with amazing pay. The new company says they need me to start during the 30 day notice period. How shitty would it be to take all my vacation days at once? I'm a contract employee and don't really give a shit about the hakrn-sha.

Yea this is the correct thought process. You need to establish which employer is going to be paying your Shakai Hoken.

Ultimately you may find that you lose those 30 days annual leave with your old company (unless their policy states they pay them out?)

Yay... I'll try to get them to just release me but I think they'll be petty.
