employer messing with approved time off

About five months ago, my fiancé requested a Friday at the end of February off, since he is off on Saturday and Sunday. Now, when he first signed on, they warn people that they make work a Saturday in exchange for a weekday sometimes. This has never happened to him. At least until this week. This week he’s been informed that he works on Saturday for the rest of the month. That means he is being told to come in the weekend he requested off. They gave him the Thursday off that week but not the Saturday, and they say they can’t guarantee moving the schedule around because he used all his PTO going to the doctor. I’m so frustrated. It feels malicious on their end. It always seems like when you make plans to take a day off, your employer will find a way to shit on your plans.…


About five months ago, my fiancé requested a Friday at the end of February off, since he is off on Saturday and Sunday. Now, when he first signed on, they warn people that they make work a Saturday in exchange for a weekday sometimes. This has never happened to him.

At least until this week. This week he’s been informed that he works on Saturday for the rest of the month.

That means he is being told to come in the weekend he requested off. They gave him the Thursday off that week but not the Saturday, and they say they can’t guarantee moving the schedule around because he used all his PTO going to the doctor.

I’m so frustrated. It feels malicious on their end. It always seems like when you make plans to take a day off, your employer will find a way to shit on your plans. He has NEVER worked a Sat for them before, been with them almost a year.

I’m just so frustrated.

Edit: Don’t advice us to have him quit unless you want to pay for my fiancé’s half of the utilities and rent.
