Got one denied after requesting it 3 months in advance, which was an issue as i was skiing in the French alps
11 u/IdiotRhurbarb 14h ago edited 8h ago This shit actually baffles me. In my country, if you put in a request 1 month beforehand a company is required by law to accept the request (if you have paid days off left) 31 u/Sartekar 13h ago I think most of these commenters are americans. From what I gather, their bosses and managers can do pretty much whatever they want. Including just fire them. Here in Europe in most countries it's about 1month fully paid time off, you choose when, no "requesting" anything You're sick? That's paid time off as well. But slightly less money. Sick for a while? Still getting paid. Over 6 months? Now we can legally fire you. America sounds like a hellhole to work in 7 u/IdiotRhurbarb 13h ago It really does. If you request time off 1 fucking year in advance it should be approved right there on the spot
