- z2 8y agoI try to travel with friends each year, but the core issue for most of us is, even with PTO, a few weeks of overtime is needed before or after the trip because work can't wait, and our colleagues cannot absorb our work. Speaking of our colleagues, many haven't taken vacation in years and let their unused PTO roll over and eventually expire!
