"If they are a larger company, they likely know the rules and are trying to be less than fair and skirt their responsibilities to the system and to you."

~200 employees so this is probably the case. Although I may wait to see if I actually do get paid before I bring it up. It's possible that incorrect information was given to me.

Yea, there is no reason they should be asking you to take PTO then, IMO. It all kind of becomes moot if you go and either get dismissed or are only there for 2-3 days since you'd be working the other days anyway.

FWIW too, a lot of newer managers, and younger people just don't know these laws/rules simply because they haven't ran into them yet. So it is common to have them make, sometimes odd, requests with no malice or bad intentions, just out of a lack of knowledge.

The more I think about it, the more I believe this is the case. But thank you for the guidance.
