skydiver30960 0 #5 July 27, 2004 Dude, I've always believed that if I give fifty (or more) weeks out of my year to my work, and if I give adequate notice, then there should be NO reason for my work to ever deny vacation. We set aside our hobbies, our families, and everything else for our jobs. They can do us the honor of letting us pick what TEN DAYS out of 365 that we can acutally spend as we wish. What would your boss do if the shoe was on the other foot? What do you think they'd say if at the last minute before a busy work week you said "oh, sorry boss, something has come up and I'm going to have to cancel my work plans for the coming week. Sorry, these things happen and we'll get through them best if we all stick together and remember that we are A TEAM". So to make a long story short: I would strongly suggest that you tell your boss to GET FUCKED! ...and come to the WFFC of course. If that doesn't work for you, and you end up working that week, just do everything WRONG. Just screw up everything you possibly can without getting canned. If somebody complains about your work, just tell them you're feeling overworked and stressed out from having worked so long without any time off.

Bolas 5 #7 July 27, 2004 Great advice, and what do you do for a living again? Besides sell all your worldly possessions... The sad part is there is not really too much you can do, other than get another job soon. 2 years ago I wanted to go to Lost Prairie and was all lined up to go. About a month beforehand a big project came up that was going to require lots of night and weekend work and all vacations for 2 months were canceled. I found another job within the same company, relocated, and now work in a job where they are organized better and I'm going to WFFC this year. We'll see ya next year at WFFC... Stupidity if left untreated is self-correcting If ya can't be good, look good, if that fails, make 'em laugh. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sunshine 2 #8 July 27, 2004 At my new job, nobody is allowed to take vacation in August. Since mine was pre-planned before i took the job, i get to go this year. But i must find a new job before next august rolls around. ___________________________________________ meow I get a Mike hug! I get a Mike hug! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crzjp20 0 #9 July 27, 2004 i do understand what yoru saying but since i have only had this job for about 3 months and all that and the fact that the company just got bought and the transition is the same week as the WFFC i canunderstand.

No big deal ill make the next big one, my new rig will be here by then and i will be ready to go. but it still stinks-------------------------------------------------- Fear is not a confession of weakness, it is an oportunity for courage.

flyangel2 2 #10 July 27, 2004 WFFC will be there next year, and you'll have more jumps. Yes, it sucks. Just look forward to the next big boogie you can attend.May your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, leading to the most amazing view. May your mountains rise into and above the clouds. - Edward Abbey Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chaoskitty 0 #17 July 28, 2004 Quote They can do us the honor of letting us pick what TEN DAYS out of 365 that we can acutally spend as we wish. Whoa.. you work 7 days per week? We actually get like 104 days off out of 365, plus about 24 more in company holidays and vacation. But that still blows that they denied his PTO request.
