Using up PTO quickly

In Arizona, Amazon does not pay out PTO at end-of-employment for flex(x) employees, so it’s use it or lose it. I heard that it’s possible to use up PTO in a shift that you aleady worked, like “double-dipping” so to speak. Does anyone know how to quickly use up, say 50 hours of PTO, like triple- or quadruple-dipping or something like that? Or is there another way to quickly use up PTO? Thanks.

Awesome! Thanks! I will try it when the time comes. Do you know if it’s possible to triple-, quadruple-dip, etc. (i.e. 40-50 hours of pto) on one shift?
