Hey all. I know this isn't the best place to ask a legal question but I'm wondering if you guys had an idea about my situation
In March I requested Thanksgiving week off because I'm going on a trip. I showed HR my flight information and they were very kind in helping me submit it and told me I should have my manager at the time sign off on it. So I did I have pictures of the signed paperwork. And a screen shot of the approved time off via their official app
Today I wake up to see I'm scheduled to work that week and my vacation isn't on the app anymore. I know their systems underwent went maintenance and I feel like the update perhaps didn't save the request. I'm a little upset because that's a notorious weekend for everyone wanting and requesting off and everyone getting denied
So I'm writing here to ask for advice in advance, I'm obviously going to talk to HR first thing today to try and rectify this issue BUT IN THE OFF CHANCE I get denied, My question is: what do I do? Do I lawyer up? Do I contact a certain workers rights group? (Can anyone suggest some?)
