Today, my boss refused to give me vacation time for my wedding and honeymoon because she didn't have a honeymoon and because of that apparently neither should I. FML
bingalingading tells us more.
op here! Turns out I sorta kinda went over her head about it and now my vacation time has been approved! Of course said manager wasn't happy, but of course I went to HR about it and they seemed to have taken care of it. So starting June 22nd I will be on a cruise with my lovely wife!

Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

That seems highly unreasonable. If your company has one, try contacting HR. Whilst your boss signs off your holidays, in some workplaces HR needs to approve them as well (basically to log them). So, they should be able to help.

if it were me, that's just too bad for the boss, cause I'd be on vacation anydamnedways. a lot of travel expense is nonrefundable and not cheap either. plus, you can't help she's some kind of soured bitch.

She knows she has all the power and you have none at all. You need a union, and not just your "marriage union" either...lol

Tell her to suck it up. Go to HR, or look for another job.

IF you have saved vacation time she can't tell you can't take it specifically because she's jealous of your honeymoon. Go above Her head if you can
