I took the whole week off but if I hadn't I'd have been working. On my team at work they started declining PTO requests for the 5th since too many people were putting in requests.

I'm a red badge, not a blue badge. So I only get paid for when I am on site. Saving my PTO (carried UK holiday's over with the intercompany transfer) to get drunk and eat too much in Spain in a few weeks time. First "vacation" in seven years. I managed to do six hours before I said WTF...this monday feels like a MONDAY.

That's pretty much how my day was. Got absolutely loads done. Plus it was 71F in the office and 93F at home.
