I have unlimited PTO.

It's not company policy. I don't take time off.

It's not law, which says 7 days per year is legal.

I just do what I want. Like not showing up saying I'm sick or "working" from home for a week.

Or doing my stuff on my laptop at the office.

If manager asks about something I say I'm working on it.

But no one asks. They don't want to be cause of a good employee quitting.

I set conservative estimates and I do literal minimum to technically reach them.

Everybody loves this system. No one can tell I'm slacking and I'm more chill as a person.
