'If you want to leave this company on good standing you have to come in on your approved day off': Employee granted a personal day by supervisor, manager insists he must still report to work or face consequences

So, our friend (the OP) has been working at a hotel for nearly four years and is about to move on to a new job. The trouble? His manager is causing quite a ruckus during his final days.

This manager has a history of making life difficult for our OP, and it all hit a boiling point when he put in his notice. From unusual write-ups to some eyebrow-raising demands, it's safe to say this isn't your typical farewell. The latest twist? An approved day off has turned into a potential face-off. The manager insists that our OP comes in on his day off (even though it was already approved, and he has the receipts to prove it). Why does the manager want him to come in, you might ask? To dodge paying overtime to the coworker who offered to cover the shift. Yep, you read that right. It's starting to feel like our OP should've left this gig ages ago.

So, our OP is in a pickle and jumped to Reddit for some advice. Should he show up on his day off as requested, or is it time to consider legal routes? He's got evidence in their pocket, but how should he play the cards? Let's dive into the thread and hear from some fellow Redditors as they try to help our friend navigate this sticky situation.
