Not paying them out their PTO is theft and they should sue you. Your contact says you need to give 30 days notice? That's bullshit.

Did you ever stop and think about why so many shitty people work there? Maybe because it's a shitty company and flies are drawn to shit. Like attracts like.

Look, I have no authority on this or any related topic. I'm personally a bit of a fuck-up with more than a couple gaps in his resume because I quit my job every two years because I get bored or annoyed. But, I don't even know what my point is, but, jesus christ, wease

All these incidents can't be viewed in isolation. Each incident affects the staff morale.

big time culture problem. wease is doing what he can by systematically weeding out the problem employees, but long term change is above his pay grade. gotta find a way to lead upward, or get out. otherwise this is status quo.

I'm sure it's legal (ugh), but it's horrid. They earned that time (money) and it's being taken from them. Just horrid. And whose ever job it is to explain to employees what their rights and responsibilities are in this field isn't exactly doing a bang up job, either. This is a huge thing and should 0% have been a surprise to this person. Of course she left early when she learned that. As well she should

If I could make as much just doing x-rays somewhere and not have to worry with all this shit, I’d be there in a heartbeat. I do get worried about my stress levels sometimes.
