Can people not just take PTO whenever they want? Or does it breach some company policy at certain places? I don’t get why this person felt like he had to ask for time off when his wife had cancer.
edit: thanks for the responses. My question was not on PTO accrual or the optics around it, but on the practice of just scheduling time off and taking it versus asking for permission. Today I learned I am either very lucky to be working at the places I have been, or maybe my bosses have been too timid to tell me no
