PTO is not a retirement plan and should not be used as a short term unemployment plan

Stock. Definitely my unemployment plan until I feel more secure. Weekend trips make it easy to travel w/o taking days. Just came back from the Caribbean on a flex trip.

Lol @M1 !!!

I stock but that's just because I'm too cheap to go on vacation. I'm at 267.34. I'm CDO so I don't accumulate as much either.

I will never lose an hour of PTO. I refuse. I use my days
