Quitting a month from today, 1 vacation day and 1.5 sick days to use.

Hey guys, I was wondering how I should go about using my remaining PTO before I quit my job in June. Combined with having Memorial Day off I could feasibly not work another 5 day week until I quit. For context I've been working an entry-level office job in an industry I want no future in since the end of March. I always planned on quitting at the beginning of August at the latest to go back to school but I hate being there 40 hours a week so have decided on June 14th as the end date. In the month and a half I've been there I've already used 4 days of PTO (2 sick days and 2 floating holidays) and am a bit worried they'll get suspicious that I'm taking so much time off in my first (and last) two and a half months.

Hey guys, I was wondering how I should go about using my remaining PTO before I quit my job in June. Combined with having Memorial Day off I could feasibly not work another 5 day week until I quit.

For context I've been working an entry-level office job in an industry I want no future in since the end of March. I always planned on quitting at the beginning of August at the latest to go back to school but I hate being there 40 hours a week so have decided on June 14th as the end date.

In the month and a half I've been there I've already used 4 days of PTO (2 sick days and 2 floating holidays) and am a bit worried they'll get suspicious that I'm taking so much time off in my first (and last) two and a half months.

I don't really plan on using them as a reference because I pretty much lied to get hired and am leaving after only a couple months so that's not a concern. Really I just want to avoid the awkwardness of them realizing I'm probably about to quit while I'm still working there for a couple weeks.

Any advice for dealing with those couple of weeks or how/when to use these last days is appreciated especially if you've been in a similar circumstance.
