Why is it so hard to put in a request for vacations at work?
Posted by Saint Peter Loves P on 4/15/26 at 8:27 pm
Got a little grief from my sales boss today for putting in PTO for a 5-day trip to Montreal in July.
(4th of July week)
Kinda threw me off because it’s not like I’m constantly out. I take maybe one real trip a year, if that. Rest of the time I’m at work or just keeping things low key. Haven’t been anywhere new in a while, so I figured I’d finally use some of the PTO I’ve been stacking.
Montreal just seemed like an easy choice. Never been, not crazy expensive, good food, walkable city, something different without being a whole production.
Boss hit me with the “that’s a lot of time” line, which I didn’t really know how to take. It’s five days… not like I’m asking for a month off.
