hi, i’m a relatively new partner (nov 2021) and i am studying abroad for 8 weeks this summer. i applied for a LOA, but they only gave me 30 days and said to “work with a manager to figure out the rest” but when i asked a manager, they said if i didn’t come back to work after the LOA is over, it’s considered job abandonment. i’m not quite sure what to do. i leave on monday and i only just found this out. should i just quit now and reapply at the end of my study abroad so i still have a job when i come back?
