Millennials Embrace 'Quiet Vacationing' to Avoid PTO Requests

TL;DR Summary
Millennials are adopting a new practice called 'quiet vacationing,' where they take unofficial time off without informing their bosses to achieve better work-life balance. This trend is a response to the high percentage of employees, especially among Gen Z and millennials, who don't take all their paid time off. Unlike 'quiet quitting,' which involves doing only the minimum job requirements, 'quiet vacationing' involves discreetly taking breaks while maintaining the appearance of being active at work.
