15 Years at the same company, never had an issue with unpaid time-off after using up paid time off. Last week after requesting unpaid time off for the first time this year I was told “you aren’t eligible for time off without pay, not sure why you were in the past.”

…not sure why I was eligible for unpaid time off for 15 YEARS!? Who's the one who looks bad here?

To make matters worse this came weeks after being home sick with Covid and only days after I had to rush my mom to the ER!

Needless to say my resume has been updated and is currently being circulated. If anyone needs an IT person in Wisconsin, or any kind of remote help, hit me up!
