I’m sad bc my birthday is coming up & my coworker decided to ask off for the days I had already been approved to take off so I had to cancel my trip & can’t do anything big now but if you could like comment pics of your animals being cute it would help

Why were they allowed to take off if you were already approved??????

I mean this in the nicest way possible: have a backbone. Ur days off were approved months ago and you have proof of that so it’s not your responsibility to cover for their mistake. Tell them you can’t work those days as you’ve already purchased non-refundable tickets since your time off was approved 2 months ago

I don’t actually know. There was a change in managers between when my request was submitted/approved and now, and all I can think is that they didn’t look at the schedule and my coworker I guess didn’t remember when my birthday was or maybe just didn’t care

You should bring up that you were already approved to have those days off

I did, I told them the request was approved in April but I didn’t even know she asked off until the schedule was released and my manager told me, my coworker didn’t even mention it so I was blindsided. We worked something out so that I do get some days off but I was supposed to leave on a Thursday and now I have to work that Friday and Saturday and I’m upset that I did things the right way in advance and somehow still this happened
