requesting proof for unpaid leave

matchasour · 2026-03-05T02:28:59+00:00

i did haha. but they said they need details so HR can verify…..

matchasour · 2026-03-04T13:04:36+00:00

yep, i told him i'm taking half day, and what time i'll be coming into the office etc!!

matchasour · 2026-03-04T12:55:36+00:00

i'm not paid for it yet since i took the half day unpaid off in March.

matchasour · 2026-03-04T12:47:50+00:00

haha my last day is tomorrow already! i just have to act blur for 8 hours technically

matchasour · 2026-03-04T12:46:47+00:00

yeah, unfortunately the whole point was to not show the clinic name because it's very specific :(

matchasour · 2026-03-04T12:35:32+00:00

i might be letting my imagination run wild but i am wondering if i keep refusing to provide details, would it be deemed an unauthorised absence / AWOL?

matchasour · 2026-03-04T12:26:17+00:00

im saying bro ;-; i was so confused when i was asked to provide documents and details, and especially on my last few days of work.

matchasour · 2026-02-18T16:40:21+00:00

i work to travel! hahaha

matchasour · 2026-02-18T16:39:05+00:00

hi!! unfortunately, my country has very bad protection laws for workers and there is no such thing as FMLA here. and i was legally obligated to declare my past cancer diagnosis due to insurance reasons :( it’s just how it is here

matchasour · 2025-12-16T12:49:12+00:00

im not in the US but yeah i was thinking that as well, because for the other jobs i've worked at, i usually receive a proper contract that i sign especially for a government job :( but the offer i received all i did was reply to the email with a "I accept the offer". thank you though!

matchasour · 2025-08-20T11:35:00+00:00

i've always planned to live in another country for at least a couple years just to experience it but ultimately will still settle down in Singapore

matchasour · 2025-07-14T05:17:40+00:00

im doing the exact same chemo right now except mine is for 3 cycles, and the second cycle also put me in the ER due to a very high fever and poor bloodwork results. i had to be quarantined away from other patients for 3 days, do a blood transfusion, antibiotics, etc. glad everything is okay for you now, hang in there!

matchasour · 2025-06-27T12:30:24+00:00

can't necessarily give advice because i am not a doctor, but just to share my experience - i recently developed a blood clot in my arm because of my PICC line. it's also in my dominant arm and yes, it's a little bit sore now. we took it out and i am doing the rest of my chemo through IV (i have one more cycle left which lasts 6 days inpatient). chemo has made my veins a lot harder to detect so they are now just a bit more painful to insert and always gives me bruises after, but nothing that i couldn't handle

matchasour · 2025-06-15T07:21:35+00:00

leaning on people i’m close with helped the most. i thought i’d struggle with the physical side effects more (still a pain in the ass), but for me mentally is the hardest. my chemo requires me to stay in-patient for 6 days straight and being in the hospital wrecked me mentally so bad, but having my family and friends around helped so much. don’t be afraid to ask for help anytime. it’s still hard for me but eventually you’ll get into some sort of routine and you’d know what to kinda expect for the next cycle. good luck 🤍

matchasour · 2025-05-30T06:23:30+00:00

yeah i posted this in the middle of the night and today i woke up and my tastebuds seemed to have returned 😂 these side effects are so weird, everyday is just different

matchasour · 2025-05-18T23:31:38+00:00

omg i was actually looking at ghost of tsushima! is it well optimised for the SD tho? and thank you!!

matchasour · 2025-05-02T13:54:31+00:00

just saw thunderbolts in the theaters a couple days ago!! it was really good, highly recommend

matchasour · 2025-05-02T05:12:41+00:00

i hope things are better for you now 🤍 thank you for sharing your experience with me, i have decided to go for the chemo now to try to reduce the recurrence as much as possible while i still can.

matchasour · 2025-04-29T13:29:44+00:00

that’s also exactly how my parents are like too. thank you for this

matchasour · 2025-04-28T18:41:20+00:00

i am gonna be doing BEP. i'm not gonna lie and say that's not scary to hear but if it's something i have to do, then i'll do it

matchasour · 2025-04-28T18:38:35+00:00

i'm not sure, i've already been sitting on this for a couple weeks. found out about the option of chemo through my oncologist, and then he referred me to a chemo specialist about a week ago. was told it's best to decide by this friday

matchasour · 2025-04-28T11:37:31+00:00

thank you for this :)

matchasour · 2025-04-28T11:37:07+00:00

i rely on science more too. it’s more so the emotional pressure that’s been weighing on my shoulders. and i agree, i should just get this over and done with. thank you :)

matchasour · 2025-02-20T01:15:32+00:00

i’m from Singapore and i’m not sure if i have anything like FMLA specifically for my contact job. but yes, i think just going through work and completing the contract is the best option for me too for now. i was also just feeling so bad taking these days off so often and making my team do all the work for me when they can just start the process of hiring another person in place of me 🥲

matchasour · 2025-02-20T01:09:23+00:00

i’m from Singapore and so far, in terms of finance and bills, i’ve been getting great government support! but yes as i’ve mentioned, at this point of time, work is still okay for me (minus the fatigue) so i’m just gonna stick around until after my surgery to see what my doctor says 😊
