Thought this would be useful to a lot of people here!
Recently I applied for PTO from my chef job due to emotional distress after leaving my ex girlfriend who was abusing me both mentally and physically
It was denied, so I took advantage of COVID law and used a couple drops of Dr Pepper to false a positive lateral flow test.
Send a photo of it and registered the result with the gov portal and BOOM, 10 days off, all paid, by COVID protocol
Just something to think about
