Other people get to take vacation after vacation but I’m stuck not getting a chance to take a vacation. My supervisor always reminds everyone that they can take vacation and she always says she doesn’t deny vacation but I literally am always getting denied now. I’m nervous I won’t be able to take time off for my friend’s wedding or for any holidays this year. I wish I would have stayed at my previous job despite it being toxic because then I could have been able to take this time off no problem without repercussions.
