I work for a company where they give us about 21 days of PTO per year. We are allowed to carry over 7 to the following year so I had 7 carried over from last year. I have bot taken a vacation yet this year, only random days off so I still have 23 days of PTO left. I am about to take a 2 week vacation now but when asking for it my manager seemed to imply that I should use my PTO now because it would be a problem if I took it later during year end when we will be more busy. But I was indeed planning on taking on using the 12 days I have left or at least a good portion of it on another possibly two week long vacation. Is it too much to expect to be able to take two two-week long vacations in one year? I have the PTO for it but I have this nagging fear that regardless of that, taking two two-week long vacations in one year will be seen as slacking/expecting too much.
