Trying to mess with an employee's time off is a risky game. These bosses claimed that they understood when their employee requested to have Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday off because of extreme burnout. Not only did these two supervisors deny the request, but also they tried to get this guy to cover an extra shift. It was as if the entire burnout conversation went in one ear and out the other, as if it did not matter.
When the Redditor tried to reason with his supervisors, he had mentioned his doctor's recommendation for some time off. Of course, his supervisors interpreted this whole exchange as an excuse to demand a doctor's note. Well, good news! The Redditor already had a follow-up appointment scheduled and his doctor was very much in his corner. Not only did the supervisors receive said note, but also they came to learn that the request for a few days off had been amended to a demand for at least six weeks off with no confirmed return date.
