    Right but you should have said that first. The point of the post is not specifically to blindside your employer, IMO.

      As I said, it doesn’t need to be a pattern for it to be a valid reason to fire an employee, you’re going AWOL.

        The reason she was fired was not because she took time off, but because she didn’t disclose her time off.

        Big difference.

          Correct, she up and left on a last minute trip and asked for time to off after the fact, was told it was impossible to make things fit in the quota and she said it was impossible for her to go to work since she was thousands of kilometres away.

        The person you’re responding to is trying really hard to get you to understand that your story makes no sense in the context of this thread. As written, it sounds like she asked for time off and was denied. In fact, as you’ve said, she went awol and asked for forgiveness…which she did not get. That isn’t the point of this thread, which makes the very similar story confusing to seemingly everyone.

          Look at the image again and work on that reading comprehension.

            Let’s check with the expert

            @[email protected] did you mean that you literally fired off a vacation request as you were boarding the plane and it was denied, and you said fuckit. or was this a more general rage against the machine post indicating a general dislike of the concept that managers even have the ability to deny vacation requests. That is, a shitpost not intended to be taken literally.

            Inquiring minds want to know.

              Dude, it’s a fucking meme, just read the text.

              “Time off denied”

              Character already is in the plane

              The word “already” tells you everything you need to know, you just decide to overanalyze for some reason.
