Almost 2 months ago, I told my supervisor that I was planning on taking a trip over the Spring Break. He told me that as long as I got the request into the General Manager, it should be approved. A week later, I put in my formal request. Since then, I have heard nothing on it. I even brought it up in a meeting I had on Friday with both the Assistant General Manager and the General Manager that I had my trip and I would try to finish a project the weekend before. However, there was no acknowledgement one way or the other on it. The funny thing is, you’d assume since I was promoted to supervisor of my department, that I’d actually have an easier time learning it’s status!
Obviously though, I have already purchased the plane tickets for both me and my fiancé along with hotel reservations this week. It’s not one of those situations where I can wait until the last minute to do such stuff! You got to buy tickets earlier, not later. Basically, I’m planning it as if I have the time approved even though they haven’t got back to me on it.
