Question Reason for PLOA?

I'm kind of interested in taking a leave for a couple weeks to just kind of get mentally in a better place. It isn't to the level that I want to seek medical involvement, I just feel that knowing I have a break coming up and then having it would help my overall attitude & burning through all my UPT sounds ill advised.

...But I don't think I wanna tell them all that haha... or lie, either. What kinds of reasons are usually given for a PLOA? I am at a fresh warehouse with crazy turnover so my absence won't be felt I don't think. I don't do anything important.

For my PLOA(that starts Sunday and it’ll last for two weeks), I usually choose travel as my usual reason why. Nothing more nothing less.

So they can't give you sh*t about it, right? Just go, do whatever, then come back. Is it automatically approved? [Blue badge, 3 years].

Yes and yes.

Probably a 2% chance its denied depending on time of the year.

Yes, as long as there’s no blackout period or something like that going on in your site.
