I see nightmare stories of bosses getting upset when employees take PTO for important life events. I was at my desk at a previous job when I got a call that a family member had become suddenly ill. My boss all but shoved me out the door: "Go be with your family. Now. Leave. Take care of this and don't come back until you're ready. We'll cover everything here."
I couldn't overstate the effect this had on my loyalty to that boss and company.
