Boss Rejects Employee's PTO Request Sent A Month And A Half Ago Because Boss Can’t Plan Ahead

Leona Martinez

Ever had your boss reject your PTO request just because they couldn't plan ahead? Well, today we will share with you an interesting story that was posted on the r/antiwork subreddit. This subreddit is basically a place where people discuss their dissatisfaction or grievances with their work.

This story is about an employee who asked his boss for time off for five days. He even sent his PTO request a month and a half ago. But guess what? The boss said no, and the response email was just plain rude and badly written. If a company freaks out because someone wants a break for just five days, although they have plenty of time to prepare for it, well, it's a sign that things are out of whack.
