[quote=Anonymous]I work for a private company with 4 weeks PTO. Previously l worked for an agency where l got 5 weeks of vacation, and something like 2 weeks of sick days. I never came close to using all those sick days, but also 7 weeks is insanely generous. People who insist on taking them all in December before they run out really drag the organization down. Sometimes l would take off a Friday or Monday as mental health days. It’s good to get a 3 or 4 day rest to avoid burnout if you have a demanding job. Now since it’s all PTO, I don’t take mental health days. My family lives in another country and l really try to make the most of my PTO to travel. So anyhow, l think using your sick days as mental health days to extend a long weekend is smart as long as you’re not screwing your coworkers. Plan it ahead and call it a medical appointment or something in your calendar if you must. Don’t just “call in sick”. [/quote]
