That’s the norm.
I just think its bullshit.
My bf and I decided to get tickets to a music fest for tonight. We decided on it last night. He told me to lie and say there’s some emergency so I can get out early… traffic gets insane in the parking lot and the earlier the better.
I should’ve listened.
I told the truth and asked if I could use my PTO to leave 2 hours early. I was basically told I can’t. That I need a two weeks notice, or it has to be an emergency.
