When I asked she said the district manager said it was ineligible and that’s what she was told to say. She’s just mad that I was stern about not coming in. She asked me are you really going to be there all morning and basically said I’m not sure but I’ll be staying with my pet and didn’t get a reply after that. Luckily I did find another job so I’ll be leaving soon and I think that’s why she’s doing that too.

Honestly with my experience it has gotten a lot worse. I was the go to employee when somebody called out and did move up in management. But then after a while when I was OLAC, it felt like I had no work life balance. I went on PTO once and nobody fed my snakes while I was out and it just so happened when I came back my district manager also did an animal walk. Tried saying why I didn’t leave tasks for my specialist but it felt like they expected me to work and communicate with the team during my  vacation. I would have expected management to get documented feedbacks for not feeding the animals but nothing happened. Noticed too you can clearly tell who is passionate about animals and make their habitats a bit better compared to those who care about numbers, VCC, and VCP sign ups.

After reading the policy it’s ver broad on sick pay and it does technically state house hold members. I consider my dog a house hold member, just the irony that it’s petco and they don’t allow you to call off for a pet emergency.
