But why does it stop you from taking those leaves which you actually deserve?

I would rather have a set amount of days that I know I can use.

That's cool👍🏻

I don't have the option, but if I did I'd feel worried it's some kind of silent rule. Like, take PTO and you lose out on chances for promotions etc.

We need to establish some ground rules for that as well.

Any advice would be great!

Can anyone offer advice?
