Most people I know here don't take a lot of time off to begin with. Christmas week. Spring Break. Sometimes a family vacation week in the summer.

Otherwise we just kinda accrue & accrue & accrue until we hit the max for our state law.

Now it's that 'one-time PTO payout' that I'm doing a little dance about. 😁
