one bloke went off on holiday this afternoon and won't be back for another 5 weeks (he took all his holiday in one go)
the other person who's off is me
now, seeing as i wanted the week the complainer is off but couldn't because he's off, and seeing as he's not going to change as he wants "extra" days off i'm not about to lose another week of holiday because there aren't enough people available (like what happened last month when, even though there was only one person off, i couldn't take the week off because they couldn't afford to have me off during the busy period of easter)
so he can either swap with me and be happy with it or not
