"In fact, there's no need to retire at all when you can just microdose retirement one week a year! Think of how much PTO you'll accrue by the time you're 80."

They will switch to unlimited PTO so they don't have to pay it out to your descendents when up drop dead on the keyboard

My PTO rollover is capped

As somebody who has "unlimited PTO" but can't take it, my PTO rollover is also capped, but in a different sense of the word.
