Yesterday, millennial employee resigned. Offered to work his 2 weeks with 1/24 being his last day. We accepted.
Today, he sends a PTO request for 1/22, 1/23 & 1/24.
Double U Tee Eff.
You want time off? Today is your last day. Have a nice life.

25 to 40 years old who's trying to game the system?

He’s not gaming the system. In GA you have to pay left over PTO.
He’s not getting any extra money. He just lost an extra weeks wages by leaving today. Now he has a week unpaid between jobs.

Gotcha

So if you have to pay it out anyway, what does it matter if he uses?
Just principle, I'm assuming?

Saying you’ll work through the 24th then asking to work less.
He resigned yesterday so technically he’s now employed at our discretion.

But if you fire the guy, don't you have to pay severance?

Our company got out of teh whole "paying vacation"
Jan 14, 2020, 6:36 PM

buy giving us "unlimited PTO". It's a new "benefit".
But you still have to schedule it, and they'd really rather have you not take more than 3 weeks a year.
What it really means is that I now get less PTO than I used to, and if they fire me, they don't have to pay me anything.

Yep, my employer did the same thing. Exempt employees now have "unlimited vacation". I've been with them for 30 years. But, my hire date had me maxing out at five weeks vacation. Now, with the new "unlimited vacation" I'm screwing them every year taking 6 weeks off! Ha! Su-ck it, big brother!

How about work hard and do the right thing and it won’t matter. If you are worth your wages, they won’t care when you take time off. If you aren’t worth your wage, well, you don’t deserve the time off.

Some companies want you to use up your PTO in your last 2 weeks so they don't have to pay it out. Some want you to work. I don't see a problem here other than the fact he is losing money. Maybe he just wants an extended vacation.
