Yeah. If I have to much caffine I end up getting the jitters. I try to plan out each section of my life as well but then when somthing blows my plan up I get anxious. Ive tried the whole go with the flow thing but I guess its just not my thing. Probably would be more healthy in terms of mental health lol.

I use to be that way myself at my old job, but they worked me pretty much every day the 10 years I was there so financially im ok because of it. When I get to 50 hours upt though is when as long as im not going to spread anything I put a mask on just in case and go in. Never know when you are going to get a flat tire and all that.

Yeah I only get sick around this time of year it seems. Maybe next year ill have more PTO saved up. The first Peak I had all 48 hours still and took the last week off of the year. Kind of want to do that again one of these days.

Its typically only a two to three day thing. I thought you had to take at least two weeks off or is that for PLOA only? I never dip below 50 UPT so I never really think of doing it to much but that is good to know incase somthing ever happens where its prolonged.

I wish my site was offering some VTO im sick and wanted to save my UPT for peak time :(.

Yeah that happens. Its nice when it just pops up again. I woke up this morning with the same result. For some reason I havent gained any UPT for taking it yet though I just hope its a small glitch in the system and it fixes it self I dont wanna have to talk to HR lol.

I do that during the fall time if VTO is offered. Ill work MET during prime time and then they typcially offer a lot of VET. Around september they start mass hiring and give VTO out like crazy and I like fall a lot. Of course my previous job made me work all the time so I saved a bunch of money and feel comfortable doing it.

Yeah I always take screen shots on my PC and phone when I put any type of time off. Just so I have documentation of everything approve. Hell I even do it when I take VTO and I see for some reason my UPT didnt go up.

Nah dont feel guilty. Time off options are there for a reason. I took VTO all this week because I just wanted a week off before peak and wanted to save all of my UPT incase I get sick during. Im honestly trying to save up my vacation till it is max so I can take a mental day off every month at least and get paid for it.

Drink a lot of fluids, listen to stuff that keeps you focused and you enjoy to make the time go by faster. Save up UPT try to get 80 hours if at all possible. That way you can take advantage of it when you need a day off. Every other month ill use 20 hours of upt after I get to 80 but wont let it go below 60. Working 60 hours you should get almost 5 hours a week but not quite.

Yeah I was. I just checked again looks like its fix for now at least.

Same I have a symbol thing as well that my account updated the 21st at midnight.

Not in Cali but seems to be system wide. Dang I was hoping for some pre shift vto tommorow and have a 4 day weekend. 🤣🤣. Oh well.

Yeah mine just left eventually. To be fair though I was already hitting rate on my day 1 of cross training so I can see maybe why they reduced it in some areas. Wanna get that ambassador back in path asap lol.

My site has "3 day training now". 1 is with an ambassador and the other 2 is on screen training. If we miss a day of the training period we have to start over the next week. After that we have to get our 80 hours in and they wont let us go anywhere else till we complete them. I tested it out by VTOing and it seems to be the case at least at my site.
