RULES:
I am looking for mods!
1. The "good" part of our community means we are pro-empathy and anti-harassment. However, we don't intend to make this a "safe space" where everyone has to be a saint. Sh*t happens, and life is messy. That's why we get things off our chests.
2. Bigotry is not allowed. That includes racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, and religiophobia. (If you want to vent about religion, that's fine; but religion is not inherently evil.)
3. Frustrated, venting, or angry posts are still welcome.
4. Posts and comments that bait, threaten, or incite harassment are not allowed.
5. If anyone offers mental, medical, or professional advice here, please remember to take it with a grain of salt. Seek out real professionals if needed.
6. Please put NSFW behind NSFW tags.

Thanks for sharing my piss...😔
That’s pretty fucked up. PTO should be irrevocable. Once it accrues, even if by accident, it should be permanent until you use it.
My company has a maximum PTO policy, where once you reach the max they either force you to use it, or cut you a check for the equivalent balance and then it resets. It’s kind of annoying, but at least it accrues automatically every pay period so there’s no risk of a mistake like yours. And I’ll always get the money associated with it even if I don’t take the time off.
I’d be furious if I were you, and I would definitely let my HR department know how angry I was. They owe you something for this fuckup.
