I emailed HR (the DIRECTOR did this) due to a manager that was making it really, really hard to get 2 weeks UNPAID time off for a cousins wedding abroad.
I needed a confirmation before a certain date and she was completely ignoring me. Sometimes it took weeks for a simple one word reply.
I confided in HR, explaining the situation, the urgency in a decision, and they basically just forwarded her the email. She responded ASAP with a passive aggressive reply saying something like “you NEVER asked me for time off etc etc”. Are you serious?
So she told me to make a request in dayforce. I immediately did. Days go by, still in pending status. I’m losing my marbles because time is running and my cousin needs to know if i can go to save my spot, i have the buy the ticket, living arrangements, etc. Anyway, I ultimately resign and shortly after she immediately declined my request. You guys see why i’m pissed right? It rooms you weeks to even accept it, but not even hours to decline it. Almost as if she was purposely ignoring me. Mind you, she’s really close to our VP so there’s nothing I could really do.
Did HR violate anything?
