Can you take 2 weeks off from work?

Isn’t this ass hat a Divorce Lawyer?

Wild guess: that boss takes a lot of two-weeks-vacations in a single year. And you’ll never see him work for real, other than answering mails.

I normally roll my eyes at “person reacts to rage bait video and says the obvious, sensible thing” but something about the way this guy kicked it off with “what a fffucking asshole” won me over.

When I was on chemo I called out a few times. My manager told me this was "very inconvenient " . We work in health care. Anyway she's gone I'm still there.

This is some r/LinkedInLunatics shit.

I had a boss who always talked about "bus insurance" you want to make sure individual roles are redundant so that if someone gets hit by a bus the company can still function. If operations slow down or stop because 1 person is out, then your have an operational failure and vulnerability. ideally no person is that essential but also every person is because the headache and cost of getting their replacement up and running is significantly more than the cost of a two week vacation or a 2 month recovery window after a surgery.

In his mind if your his employee your his property.

Just say "hey, im taking 2 weeks off, and i don't really care what you think, because I won't give my loyalty to a company". See ya in 2 weeks!

Why does American management hate their employees so much? Serious question because this perspective is not rare

If the office hinges on the presence of a single person they should be getting extraordinary pay. And if they were being paid that much you'd want them to take a vacation and feel valued so they don't leave with their knowledge and expertise to become, or work for, a competitor.
