It means you take time to treat yo self during work hours, when you would otherwise use PTO and be off the clock. Obviously it can only be done if you work remotely, but you just stay signed in, looking active, but doing whatever else. You’d have to be prepared to jump back on at a moments notice though. Easy to do if you’re just milling around at home.
My first thought from the headline though was being scheduled to remote work, say for Thurs/Fri, but you’re actually away on vacation and didn’t mention it. A bit riskier since the longer your tether is from your workstation the harder it is to look active and/or jump on if needed.
