[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When I worked for a micro manager, she wanted PTO use to be REQUESTED - not informed, so the following. It's not my way as a manager - I prefer that you just put it on my calendar (as FREE so it doesn't show that I'm out) because I can't remember everyone's everything & it helps.

Hi Larla,

I have a medical appointment on May 1st at noon. I'd like to use PTO in the morning and work remotely in the afternoon if that is okay. Please let me know if you have any concerns.

I worked for a company where technically we were supposed to request it from our boss via email (so there would be a record of the request). [/quote]

We are supposed to request by email, too. Used to be we had to request from two separate people. Now just one. Luckily it's almost never a problem, but it is irritating not just being able to put in for the time off in the system.

In this situation I think I would send an email to my boss saying: Hi Larla - I've got a doctor's appointment scheduled for May 15 at 2pm. I'll have to leave at 1:30 to get there, and should be back at the computer by 3:30. I've put that in our team calendar - just let me know if there's a conflict so I can reschedule.[/quote]
