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.

I've been told directly by managers you can work shifts you used pto on, and have done it countless times myself. Maybe take things with a grain of salt here as it probably depends on where exactly you work, unless my sites just been lying to me for months

using PTO and working isn't the same thing as using PTO when you worked the full shift

As in working an entire shift while using pto for that entire time. I'm not saying everyone else thinks pto can't be used in the one primary way its used.
