And that ending is exactly what y'all should do, then leave that toxic workplace asap once you've used up your pto ;)

I love it
5 years ago I put in for a PTO day and my boss gave me such a hard time about it that my co-workers (who had been there more years than me and dealt with similar problems) told me just to call out sick instead of trying to give them ample notice. It’s worked ever since (6am phone call to the answering machine … and have a nice day) 😂😂😂😂😂

I work to live, NOT live to work……. The sooner any of my employers realize this, the better off we will all be. I don’t owe anything to my employer, they owe me…… that’s why they pay me.

Somehow, it is absolutely necessary for you to be in to avoid being short-staffed, but they can still afford to fire you.

"I tried to tell him...."🤣😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

PTO Denied?
That's fine, I'm calling in with Covid.
See you in 10 days.

This just happened to me!! I requested to be off the last week of May and my supervisor tried to tell me I couldn’t because there someone else off that week!
She tried to make me pick a different week and I said no, I want the week I’m requesting, she then said she would have to check with someone else and at the end she approved it, they do this crap every single time!!!

our company has a rule that you can't book time off in time in august or the Harbour festival, I had a family thing going on and they told me I couldn't so I did exactly this and called in sick.

I did this something like this, to my boss and I had loopholes too, after that he just paid me double so I could stop pulling theses loopholes, at work.

All one has to do is start preparing a new job from the moment PTO is denied. No job is irreplaceable. They can write you up and threaten to fire you all they want; you can leave at-will and find a job that respects your outside of work life. Too many people think a job is something they should value above themselves and their families. It’s just a thing you do to get money. Whether you’re a C-Level, Director, or Seasonal Employee. Do what’s best for you, not what’s best for a company.

If it's wedding and other family stuff I see no issues as family comes first.

My one Uncle told Costco (his job after retiring from Ford to stay busy) upon hiring that he takes a family retreat to FL every year for 2 months. He lied and said it was a religious retreat that he has done for 30+ years (the length of time is real) my cousins always got out of school for months to be in FL straight A students too. It's just what they did. So Costco says no issues, and there wasn't for a few years. Then someone new comes in and says "wait, what?" and says look you are scheduled to work he looked at her and said "I'm not asking you I'm just letting you know I'll be gone per the agreement" and that is what he did, he came back and they didn't fire him...LOL I remember him saying they tried to make him employee of the month and he turned it down, he said "look I show up I do my job and I will not park in the spot etc give it to someone else". He said employees were nasty about that stuff they all fought to get it etc and it does nothing for you. I guess that is what being retired vs having to NEED the job is like.

Family stuff, I'm not asking I'm saying LOOK I won't be in I'm just being nice and letting you know months out. Honestly I have never had an issue in the past, one place encouraged us to take unpaid time off which I did....LOL They then went under.

That end is exactly how it would end 🤣

[dierraneal]

It don’t make sense to even threaten somebody with firing them. So you as a boss think it smart to fire me and have to go through looking for replacement (that’s going to take more than a week) .than just letting me have time off and still have an employee to come back for the job. Make it make sense please, 🙄 I’ll wait… lol 😂. Yup calling out sick on day of cuz I can be petty too 🤷🏽‍♀️

I had supervisor who got upset because i need 3 days sick leave due to foot injury and demanded that i go back to work. I argued that I cant put my weight to my foot and he made things difficult for me and demanded that I should get a a 'fit to work' letter from my doctor. so I went to a music festival in a wheel chair. post it all over my socials and he got furious.

[LuciWraith]

Here from Facebook your videos got me wheezing 🤣

[usehernametooash]

Me asf. I'm not asking I'm telling you and I'm either gone for a week or gone for good 👀👀

Came from IG!! Love your workplace videos!

Sorry, not sorry. I am no longer in the military, you don't own me. It's not a request. You give me a limited amount of PTO, and I get to take it whenever I want. Especially since most companies have done away with sick time and merged it with PTO. So yeah, I'm just letting you know ahead of time. I won't be here. The right answer should be
.. "Have a great time, I'll see ya when you get back!"

Me, getting fired on a beach in Hawaii - "Extended vacation, nice!" 🍹

Only to have them begging me to come back the next week, please!
