      <description>&lt;p&gt;There are days it doesn&amp;rsquo;t feel real to have this sort of benefit. But for the&#xA;second time at &lt;a href=&#34;https://meta.com/&#34;&gt;the company&lt;/a&gt;, I am fortunate enough to take&#xA;some time off called &lt;a href=&#34;https://usrlocal.com/2019/05/recharge/&#34;&gt;reCharge&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&#xA;&lt;p&gt;Every 5 years at the company you get a benefit where you get 30 days of time off plus you can tack on an additional 2 weeks of PTO.  In total, I&amp;rsquo;ll be off for the next 6 weeks.  Relaxing, reCharging, and most of all&amp;hellip; NOT WORKING.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;I&amp;rsquo;m very fortunate to work for the &lt;a href=&#34;https://facebook.com/&#34;&gt;company&lt;/a&gt; that I do. One of the benefits that&#xA;you get after being with the company for 5 years is a reCharge period of 30 calendar days off fully paid. This is a HUGE benefit and one that I&amp;rsquo;m very happy they have in place.  After 5 years, you realize the toll the job can take on you.  I&amp;rsquo;ll fully admit, at the end of last year my projects were plentiful, my team was growing, and the challenges we were tackling were pretty challenging.  Thus&amp;hellip; I was starting to get a little burned out.  Luckily I had a few days off at the beginning of the year to put things back into persepective for me.  Spending that time with your son in the PICU fighting RSV has a tendency to do that.  You realize how lucky you are to have the insurance that you have.  But&amp;hellip; Time away is important to charge up the batteries.  Without this, I&amp;rsquo;m not sure where my head would be necessarily.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
