<prompt> Human: Hello, I recently started a job and have only accrued 4 hours of sick leave. I asked my manager to take time off during the day for a doctors appointment. Manager said that I can use my sick leave hours only for the time spent at the doctors office meaning in the building of the hospital. Time spent for the commute to and from doctors office will be unpaid. This does not sound right, does it? In this case, I would use one hour of four accrued sick hours for the actual visit, and have another hour or even more used for commute -- unpaid while I have 3 more hours unused. I checked the WA law and couldnt find any details about this.  <response>: Yeah thats not right, I live in WA too and Ive never been told that. Just to be safe I would double check with the HR department.
