My Big-Brain employer has a formal company policy of wage theft where you “forfeit” unused vacation because they consider vacation “a gift, not wages”

I'm leaving a Fortune 500 company this month, and according to HR and the company handbook I would have “forfeited” all unused paid vacation upon termination because company policy is that it's “a gift, not wages”…even though it's explicitly part of the compensation package of all salaried positions. For me this would amount to almost $2500 USD in wages, as I have rarely taken off time in the 5 years I've worked for them. HOWEVER, their policy has an exception for my state, because I happen to live in one of just 7 U.S. states that legally prohibits such practices. So now I just got an update from HR, those mofos are writing me a check

With the US going back to towards the dark age, I’m seriously considering leaving.

I’m dreading having a conversation with my manager tomorrow

I really want to do a no call no show today , but I need my job and it's not like I have any friends I hate Texas so much. But I inpatient psychward involuntarily by the cops April 1-7 then I took a few days off but found out my manager took me off the schedule because something my mom said . I'm back at work . I hate it but I don't have a choice since I have no one . I really want to do a no call no show so I can go to my concert I spent 250 on. But its probably best to talk to my manager first and just get fired for missing too many days. I'm going to ask if I can take this time off in exchange for working full-time. But tbh I really just want to quit. But I have…
