RAGE!!!

samidolls, 6 November, 2014 at 16:46 Posted on Planning 0 17

Not really wedding planning but I'm so angry I need to vent! My boss has just threatened to cancel my leave for when I am supposed to give notice! We have an unhappy customer coming to visit the next day. I tired to explain if Ive paid for the appointment, and if I reschedule I won't be able to get an appointment in time to meet the deadline to give notice!!

and he has just said well this issue is more important so if it isn't sorted that day then my leave is cancelled! Of course it will be sorted! If we aren't prepaired for a visit the afternoon before they come we never will be!!

i hope he is willing to pay to £3k it will cost me if I miss this appointment!!

GRRRRRRRR!!! ????

    If it comes to worst case scenario and you are needed at work. it only takes half an hour to give notice. I only popped out of work for an hour. Can you do that?

    A plan B?

    P.s. your boss is being an ass!

    Starting to calm down a little now,

    I'm sure i'll figure something out. There's no way I'm missing that appointment! Perhaps I'll just have to appeal to my other managers!

    maybe people who are actually married will understand (the stupid man has like 7 children from quite a few different women, 3 women this year alone! and has never made it to marriage)

    definitely can't reschedule though and i'm not sure i'd be able to make it to the appointment and back.

    Its just so frustrating i booked this appointment 2 weeks ago, before anything happened at work!!!

    So come into work this morning to be told my leave is without doubt cancelled. "its a bit unfair to you Sam but tough" were he exact words used!!!!

    Then I get told mobile phones are now banned at work so I can't even fix it!

    Thank god for my H2B, I managed to sneak off a text to him and he has rearranged it for early December - so we will still make the deadline! phew!!

    I think that is absolutely disgusting! So glad you've managed to reschedule though. Sounds like you need to start making a note of things your boss does/says, he could get himself into trouble acting like that.

    Well, it is worth checking your company's policy on cancelling already-booked leave. This happens to my H2B all the time, he ended up having to go into work on both his own and my birthday.

    If only I could! I work for a very small company, and therefore my boss who cancelled my leave is a company director- there's not really another level to go to!

    But it I am definitely going to check about the policy for cancelling leave! Hopefully come December as our appointment is 9:30am there shouldn't be a problem!!

    the joys of working whilst trying to plan a wedding!!!!

    Argh! Tell your boss (or the customer if you're dealing directly with them) that it can't be booked for the 3rd Dec as you've already re-arranged once! Don't let them do that to you again!

    It's nothing to do with your boss what you use your holiday for, sounds like he just doesn't think it's important. If he tries to cancel your next day off tell him it's an urgent hospital appointment that can't be missed!

    Wow! Your boss sounds delightful. Hope you don't get messed around too much more and hope the customer arranges for after the 3rd!

    Can you see if your original appointment is still free, or has the date passed?

    This is almost too crazy to be true.

    The customer rearranged to come in tomorrow (21/11), and today rang at 2pm to cancel.

    It has been rearranged for Wednesday 3rd December. They will be in from 9am until 3pm minimum.

    Did I mention our new appointment was 9:30 on 3rd December!!!!!

    Thankfully my boss has finally come to his senses and is allowing me to take the leave!!

    I know planning a wedding is supposed to be stressful, but I didn't think it was work that would make it stressful!!! Please tell me it's not just my life that is this crazy!!

    You couldn't make it up! Dear me, i'm glad you are at least still off! Customer can't be that bothered if it's taking this long to sort things out!
