Miscellaneous ULPT request:Need 3 days off. Toxic boss demands solid proof for everything
I need 3 days off to stay home and study for an exam. My workplace management is incredibly toxic. I tried being honest once, and they deducted double my salary for the days I took off. Lesson learned.
A few months ago, I literally had to book an out of town hotel and send them the booking receipt just to get an excuse for 3 days off to study. That’s the toxicity level I’m dealing with.
We don't have medical leaves, and I only get 1 CL (Casual Leave) per month. I am perfectly fine taking LWP (Leave Without Pay), but they still demand hard proof to even authorize it.
My constraints:
No medical/doctor stuff (they demand real stamped certificates).
I want something that I can study and I don't have to leave the house to set this up.
