you need a weeks notice to get holiday at our place, but even then, it can be denied even if there isn't anyone else off at the same time

the paperwork says you can request holiday upto 1 year in advance, but unles the holiday forms are returned signed for all the days you want off, you don't get them off and anything over 2 weeks requires special permission

thing is, all holiday requests go through me and if i ok them then they get signed off by someone higher up and if i say no then it means no, but now it looks like i'm the one being a cunt about it even though i'm trying to do my best to get him the time off

if it was for someone who was in hospital or a death or the like then it's unconditional leave as there are certain things that you get time of for regardless which are obvious, but helping someone move house isn't one of them
