@edinimusic: Timing is important #holidays #corporatehumor #officelife #worklife #edini

FuzzyCub :

It's not a request. I'm informing them of my absence.

Oz :

what kinda manager y'all have to do all

Damian O :

Nonsense. The only thing you need to know on this topic is: If your boss has any issue with the timing of your annual leave requests, get a new boss.

Woody83 :

nah. first thing Monday morning. declining it isn't an option.

999 :

Request? It’s a warning mate

Lewis Goodman :

Nope I’ll just tell them I won’t be in on this day

ᑎIKKI :

Always after lunch on Friday, definitely not on a Monday morning!!

rovert61917 :

I’ll submit it as soon as the plane ticket is booked, 3pm, 8pm or even 1am

Cammy Harold :

Not sure where you work - my manager gets grumpy when we don’t give him AL

BillyKebabs™ 🚀 :

is my manager just nice enough to do it whenever I ask?

Tilda :

my company always approves al, in fact my manager usually encourages me to take it and think about when i want it

Andrea :

I do it right before I know I'm about to give her some completed work to Pavlov her into associating the two in a positive way

Sparkle✨ :

It shouldn’t be this serious. Go to the HR system, check your teams leave to ensure there’s cover, give proper notice and submit your leave. It’s a legal entitlement so it shouldn’t take strategic wrangling and stress to book some holiday.

Grace :

I do none of this I just request it when I know I need it, so my manager has plenty of heads up time an because I have enough self respect to not worry about using something I’m allowed to use

G :

My company doesn’t do approvals. It’s auto accepted as soon as it’s filed. I can manage my own workload

mags 🌼 :

sometimes I book it the day after I get back from holidays

Tom :

I forget to take leave. My manager literally hands me the papers around October with the dates she wants me to take and I sign off on them 😂

chinuacole :

Simi :

It’s not that deep. Literally submitted it while on a call with them mutually on. In all my jobs I’ve never been declined my contractual entitlement of leave.

user9484616748649 :

I raise you: 1st day back after a week off, out of spite 💅

johni33 :

just log in to your online leave system and if the days are green you can book them (in our case 18 months ahead), why are you all having to beg your manager for leave, they shouldn't be handling that at all.
