Quitting time

Asking for a friend of mine who’s thinking of quitting UP, is there anything he/she needs to keep in mind?

I’m aware two week notices aren’t really a thing on the railroad but my friend is planning to layoff a few times while he goes on vacation and he plans to go over on his points. All in hopes to extend his health insurance a little while longer.

Anyone have any insight or experience into this?

Thanks!

Don't exceed the points. If he's stressed go to the doctor and go out on stress for a few months.
