Exactly as it sounds. I have been invited to a family wedding in July. However, this apparently overlaps with a local festival and the boss is blanket denying any requests for time off.
I'd like to keep this job if I can, and I don't want to just vanish over a weekend, but my family comes first.
Is there any way to settle this diplomatically?
