Depends.

Historically, I save up all vacation/PTO time and never use it with the idea of it all being paid out when I leave the job. It basically funds the moving process if done right.

I've learned that practice does nothing for myself and my mental/personal well-being (granted, I've never had a reason to call out or go on vacation). So I'm going to slightly edit it. I'm going to find out the max payout for unused vacation days and all that and move accordingly, i.e. if I saved up 30 vacation days but company policy says they only pay out a max of 24, I'm definitely using those extra six days.

Rarely and I get paid out for it at the end of the year too, so I hold on to it. I also work in a very relaxed environment where they encourage us to break away from work throughout the day so I never really feel the need to call out like that.

Got about 3+ weeks PTO. Truthfully, I rarely take off bc my boss gave a breh 3 telework days a work and she knows I plan dr. appts and so forth.

Goal is to find a new gig and take a 3 week vacation and start the new gig after 2 weeks of chilling.:wow:
