    I do this all the time. Everyone with pto has this ability but they are anxious and paranoid.

        I’ve found that communicating the law and legal rights has more of an effect than you think. If you have PTO, that’s yours to use.

              No one insulted you. They commented on the fact that you don’t understand reality for most people. “Oh honey” means “oh you are so innocent :/ that’s really sweet, I don’t want to make you feel bad by explaining reality to you”. They were kinda being nice to you in their way.

              I’m more nice because I think people should know reality:

              Most jobs are so easily replaceable and have so little protections that if you start citing laws and taking sick leave like it’s rightfully yours, you’ll be fired a bit later for “unrelated” reasons.

              Thus while you are right that you would be able to get your sick leave by communicating the law, you will not really get them because you’ll be out of work in a few weeks. If you want to keep your job, you don’t communicate the law and don’t take your sick leave.

              Btw, unionize to prevent all this.
