You can usually take paid time off for whatever reason.
Maybe not in the US, apparently employee rights are non-existent there
Unfortunately, I do work in the US, and yeah it's pretty nonexistent in most cases. I have a union job and it's pretty ineffectual; corporate pretty much owns the union. Even my wages are below-market.
Pretty much the only reason I stay is because due to union protection, a manager can't just walk in one day, look at me, decide they don't like me for whatever reason, and have a subordinate fire me for no listed reason, which I've had happen multiple times in the past regardless of my performance.
