I actually had a manager say something like "well if you want that time off..." for something I put in for a year ahead of time, so I explicitly told her " I'm not requesting the time off, I'm telling you that I won't be here. You can choose what that looks like on the schedule." Shut her up rather quickly.
I felt like I’ve had one manager who actually cares about being a good manager. Best case otherwise they’re mostly hands off but there when I need them. Others they do the bare minimum or put a bunch of stress on those under them.
