'I would be giving up $1,200 in PTO': Guy conceals his resignation so that he can cash out $1,200 in PTO, causing controversy at the Thanksgiving dinner table

When you're little, the difference between 'right' and 'wrong' is usually pretty clear. Stealing your friend's toy is wrong, but returning it to them is the right thing to do. Helping your little sister with her math homework is good, but pulling her hair when she gets the incorrect answer is bad. However, playground rules don't apply when you're an adult and every black-and-white decision becomes muddled in a sea of grey. Even more-so in the workplace, there's a fine line between doing the right thing for your company and doing the right thing for yourself. 

Because when it comes to money matters, there's no right or wrong, only cold, hard cash.
