[quote=Anonymous]The first time she requested to take unpaid leave, you should have said no. It's sounds like you're approaching her as though you're offering advice ("You should use your paid days first") but you're NOT her buddy, you're her employer. You can enforce this boundary now. "Larla, we're no longer able to offer unpaid days off. You can, of course, use your paid vacation days however you'd like. You have X days left. However, you had mentioned wanting to take X+3 days off in the summer. That will not work for us - we need full time coverage and cannot handle backup care for more than the paid days off from your contract. If that is not workable for you, then I don't think this position is a good fit for you. I'll give you a few days to think about it. Let me know what you decide." And if she goes over her PTO, fire her. [/quote]
