What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Washington
Alright, I know the timing is very limited but any advice would be greatly appreciated.
I recently accepted a new position with a start date of 9/13/2010. I will reach my one year mark with my current employer on 8/31/2010 at which time I will receive apprx. 80 hours of paid time off that I have earned during my 1 year tenure. My original plan was to put in my two weeks notice with my current employer on 9/13/2010 and use that vacation time as my two weeks notice so I can earn a double salary during that transition (Yes, I realize this is not considerate to my current employer.)
I was told by a bottom level manager today that if paid time off is used during the two weeks notice then they will let you go and consider you a non-notice quit without paying the remainder of the PTO.
So my dilemna and question is: Is there anything I can do to collect my paid time off that I have earned without sacrificing a reference and being considered as a no-notice quit that is not eligible for rehire?
