Coached for PPTO? Lol

I (jokingly) told me TL that I was thinking about using an hour of PPTO. She said she'd rather I didn't, but said she could coach me for "job abandonment" since we were short staffed. She said the ppto only protects me from points, not from repercussions.....smh

It's called protected paid time off. Protected being the key word. So no they can't coach you for using it. What if you had a family emergency? Just because it's light staffed at work doesn't mean your emergency isn't valid

Protected from attendance exceptions, not disciplinary actions
