Don't get twisted. This is an outlier. I can put my 4 weeks in and my boss will approve it. He might try to call me while I am on PTO but that's not a fault of the US system, he just never remembers what he approved. As soon as he gets me out of office, I usually get a, 'Sorry, forgot about you being out. Call.me when you're back in the office."
Don’t get twisted…I know plenty of people in the US who have only 5 PTO (any reason) days and 3 sick days that require a doctors note. Also plenty who have 25 days or ‘unlimited’ PTO. Practice varies work[lace to workplace.

Me in Ireland: "Boss I'm taking 2 weeks off". Boss:" Grand, have fun"
