People on Blind- whatโs your end game?
Nothing. Just fucking take it you miserable being, you owe nothing to no one.
Don be so mean, but good words ;p
True man ..... but Iโm not leaving the company ๐คฏ
Relatives in the area. But seriously just take it.
True.. this is a good one. I always worry about year end rating ๐
We all do. You deserve it, so take it.
Tell them you are taking time off to interview at a better company that wonโt ask you for such personal information.
Wow ๐ฒ
โก๏ธ๐ฅ๐ฅ dig it
Why not tell the truth? Some people need to recharge by going somewhere else. Other people need to just stay at home and veg.
This is what we should do but people may not like someone just staying at home but not coming to work
who says??? this is US, not Asia
Just tell him it's personal.
Can we tell like that ? My colleagues used to say personal leave .... I still think that they at least reveal to manager ๐ค
Let me answer the question with another question. What does PTO stand for?
Itโs called a staycation ๐
Good one ๐
"I am taking my vacation time." That's all they need to know.
Rock solid
Buddy if you're worried about what your manager will say when you want to take vacation you've earned, you've got bigger problems โน๏ธ seriously it's your time off and you should expect ppl to respect that. Be mindful of picking a time when your team will not be scrambling without you, but also have some respect for yourself and realize you're not your company's slave. Lastly, try building a better trust rapport with your manager so you'd feel more comfortable discussing some personal activities with them. You don't have to reveal everything, but being ultra secretive doesn't help people get to know you or build a good team.

Mental health day(s). TBH you do not need to convince anyone to take your own PTOs
Just say you are taking a vacation. Why do you need to say for what purpose?
Then I need to tell them where Iโm going and all .... ๐
Why? That's none of their business
