I'm with you brother. I actually enjoy my job and my bosses are decent, they never micromanage or get in my way. Ill still take 'sick' mental health days off every 2 months or so just so they're reminded how much of a pain in the ass it is without me here. I also take all my vacation time but it's usually in one go for extended vacations. Gotta make sure they're reminded every couple months though.

I presume you're from the US but at first I was surprised you can even not take all vacation days. Cause in my country it is actually illegal to not use all vacation days and the employer pays a fine for that. Which leads to a bunch of people having days or even weeks free in February/March as they're using their vacation days (the law necessitates them to be used by Q1 or so of following year).

Yea from the US. I phrased it that way because I can actually bank vacation days and use them next year, up until a certain cap at least. Actually used it to take a long vacation in japan last year.
