@ys I recently retired and my boss changed my status after I left from retired to "left under unfavorable circumstances". Watch yourself going out the door. Life is so much better on the outside, I couldn't believe how awful Elevance was until I started my new job.

Retiring soon. Making sure I take it all before the last day. Even Wellness and Volunteer, plus the eight in the STD bank. Not leaving any behind.
Only if your state mandates it, like in Illinois. But other places like Ohio? no.
Do whatever works best for you because this place doesn't care whether you're dead or alive tomorrow.
Looks like they're getting their ducks in a row w/ your situation to be ready to let you go, so they won't have to be paying it out.
"As an E – 14 I was just notified a few months ago that I’d be moving to “unlimited PTO“."
You might want to get proactive about starting a job hunt now, just in case.
Don’t get me started. As an E – 14 I was just notified a few months ago that I’d be moving to “unlimited PTO“.
At the time I had over 200 hours saved up (I’m in California). Well, with open enrollment getting there was a little chance I could use that much time before the end of the year. I realized that I would arrive at January 1 with unlimited PTO and a couple hundred hours in my bank which effectively disappeared it’s a neat magic trick.
If I had taken those 200 hours I would still arrive at January 1 with unlimited PTO.
Can you see the problem here?
In other words, there was very little reason for me not to have taken those six weeks or whatever off last year why not?
Depends on your state. California, Montana, Colorado, Nebraska require payout. A handful of others require it under certain conditions.
Otherwise, no. This is also the reason for the ongoing shift to unlimited, because even in the above states, it circumvents the payout requirement.
Nope…use it or lose it UNLESS your state has rules requiring it.
