Loved my job before last. Some mornings I'd pop out of bed with a new idea I wanted to try, couldn't wait to get to the office. Some nights I'd work on my home lab, testing ideas for work and learning for my own benefit.

But you damned straight I took my PTO. In fact, one of the two reasons I quit was being denied a single day of PTO. First time they had shot me down, unwise as I was the entire IT department.
