So because I’m a dumbass i had to look up wtf quiet vacationing is, and what i found doesnt match up with what is implied here.

Can someone spell it out for me, what ‘quiet vacationing’ means here? Like quiet quitting is bare minimum, nothing more. What is quiet vacationing, vacationing without using PTO if you have it or smth?

Much like quieting quitting means just having a job, i think quiet vacationing just means like when you go home

If I had to guess, it’s taking PTO without asking first since in most places, there’s technically no rule that you need to ask for permission, just that you notify them ahead of time

I think that "quiet vacationing" is just like, going on vacation without taking PTO. Don't tell anybody, don't ask for PTO, just don't do any work and fuck off to Bali for a week or something. Only works for remote workers of a specific email job class.
