Nope, never. I have a right to take my PTO whenever and however long I want if I’ve earned/accrued it.

I’m more conscious of how long a vacation is… eg it would be great to go to Hawaii for three weeks and I technically have the time but I’d be worried about going that long

Just one week for each, but only 3 weeks apart
Never. I’ve hesitated once, was denied, and ended up covering for someone for three weeks who put in a request first. It sucked, I was pissed, and missed out on a great adventure with my friends in Southeast Asia. After that I never hesitate to put in for exactly what I want. You’ll always remember the trip but you’ll soon forget the quarterly report.

This is a good reminder that we should always value our lives more than a report
Nope!!
No, it's there to be used!
Nope, I start using my time as soon as get it. Rest! Relax! Regroup!
I used to. Not anymore. I make sure to prepare the others well and that usually helps mitigate and side-eyes I would expect from peers.

Good point here
Absolutely! I have 2 long weekends that I’m taking off later this month but hesitated to put in my requests.

Reading the comment below, don’t hesitate to put it in!
Nope. I just make sure I choose a slot without critical deliverables, or get them done prior. Don’t just leave and make others cover major stuff.
