Antiwork

my company didn't pay me out the PTO when I left. what do I do!

In British Columbia we have a new law as of Jan 1st that our employers have to give us 5 days paid sick leave a year, in addition to our already available 3 days of unpaid sick leave. I was horribly sick after New Years (Not C19) and my Dr. ordered me off work for 2 weeks. I used my 3 unpaid days, and only 1 paid day to cover me during that time.

And last night was a dark night, meaning that instead of stocking the shelves we were blocking the shelves. Blocking means to pull things forward on the shelf. Well, it's usually 4 of us who are there. Two people (the managers) are doing repack (putting things onto the shelf that once couldn't be put up) and two people are blocking. The other person who blocks with me quit his job two weeks ago. So what's supposed to happen is that the assistant manager would come help me with blocking while the manager does repack. However, I got put to block the entire store by myself for two weeks in a row. I…
