'He was only needing to take three days off': Hardware store denies Dad three days of leave scheduled three months in advance, he quits
This manager denied their employee a mere three days off which was requested three months in advance. So now, instead of managing a schedule three months in advance, they get to organize a permanent schedule—a man down… immediately.
Constantly needing to organize an adequate schedule with minimal resources is one of the worst parts of managing retail. Typically, these companies run staffing at a bare minimum to save on labor costs, offering poor compensation, meaning that when a full-time worker moves on, you have difficulty replacing them and need more resources to cover. In these situations, you typically end up with a patchwork of multiple part-time workers, with limited availability due to other commitments, to fill in the gaps. All the while, upper management is breathing down your neck, pressuring you to get everything done with no resources to do it with, and blaming you for being behind when the reasons for that are incredibly obvious.
Yeah, it's no fun managing retail, but that doesn't mean you can get away with refusing to let your employees take leave—especially with this much notice.
Keep reading to see selections of this thread that the worker's daughter, Redditor u/Mandy-pants123, shared on r/antiwork this week. Next, check out another worker who quit when their boss denied their leave request.
