I think all it has to do is just touch a day, not cover the whole block of days.

You’re probably right. Just easier for me to explain it that way.

Also, I'm in the same situation as OP and am thankful for everyone's input as well.
Y’all are going about this the wrong way. Just burn all your PTO and then bang out sick. It’s a backwards way of bringing back UTS

Correct. There is no PTO debt.

Definitely not going to hold a line in 6 months. I’m at 1.5 years and I’ve had only one month that I held a line with out any pre-credit (vacation, training, etc.). And that was with an “Award Pairings” command in my bid. No requests whatsoever.

I hope so. I’ll be at the two year mark in October (start of upgrade training). I don’t expect to be able to hold a line in July or August.
