Overall, I actually really like my job and the people there. Our managers support us and listen, and the pay is fair. But I still feel bad or guilty when I want to take time off or when my availability changes (I’m a FT student working PT, so class times dictate my schedule right now). I didn’t take a single day off in my first 3 months, and have only asked for 1 Friday off so far, but I’m planning a vacation soon and asking for a few days off and even though I feel like it will likely be approved, it still stresses me out and I feel bad asking for time off. Just wanted to rant about the culture of being guilted for taking time off and not having your job be your #1 priority. Since I’m only PT, I don’t get much vacation time, so I feel like it looks bad asking for time off when I technically don’t have any available, but it’s not a big deal for me to not get paid for that week.
