Doesn't sound like he had much PTO anyway. Why wouldn't he just take leave? If he wanted to take PTO and then dip into leave when it runs out, there may be legal reasons you can't do that.

Sounds like he had unlimited PTO and had hardly used any of it to me.

They did take leave -- evidenced by the language about not being able to extend the leave by using PTO in the email from their manager.

Exactly. He's basically arguing over a few dollars (PTO vs leave), and I'm guessing it's not because he needs the money.

Because PTO needs to be approved by the manager which they weren't ready to do.
