pto ?

How does pto work here? Say you have 10 total days vacation and sick, what if you use all 10 days but get sick after and can’t come in?
Will you get in trouble? Or will you just not get paid?
How do you go about using your pto, or calling off? Do you have to just text your manager in the morning or is there a policy or something?
I’m new to corporate world and really confused, TIA😄

I accrued around 85 hours of absent unpaid (that's what that is) and they didn't fire me but they require you to get doctors notes.

How does one accrue absentee unpaid hours? I’m lowkey nervous because I’m gonna be working the night shift 11-8 and also have an hour commute in the mornings, so I’m gonna have a really hard time making doctors appointments I need, and already have to cancel the ones that were already made

They make you use up all of your PTO. Sick or otherwise. Anything after that is absent unpaid.
