I recently quit my job and had vacation, personal, and sick hours saved up. Upon exiting the company they only compensated me for my regular work hours and my vacation hours, which was only 5.77 hours. I was not compensated for my 10 hrs personal or for my 10 hours sick time. I was wanting to know should I have been compensated for my personal and sick hours as well?
