girlofpreyLast Thursday at my counselling session, I got talking about how I'd been really tired lately - with the heat, and the stuff we were talking about, and coming off my medication probably - and how I just wanted a holiday. So that day at work, I decided to have a go, and asked my boss if there was any chance I could have Monday (yesterday) off. He said it would be difficult, given that it was Friday the next day, but to leave it with him and he'd see what he could do. He didn't come and speak to me about it again, and he was really busy up till the end of the week, so I decided I didn't want to bother him about it, I'd just assume that if he'd arranged it he would have told me, and he didn't tell me.
I came in yesterday, and I see the morning receptionists now with my earlier hours, so I saw the woman on from the morning. And she said "I thought you weren't in today - I'm supposed to be in all day". And my boss had arranged the day off for me and had just forgotten to tell me. So I went in and said this to him, that he'd never actually mentioned he'd arranged cover for a day off, and at that point the day off wasn't much good to me because I'd already gotten up and ready for work and come in. And now everyone's running around trying to figure out how to give me next Monday off, because they feel bad that I didn't get the holiday I'd actually arranged. But apparently next Monday my boss is off, the morning receptionist who normally does that day is off, and a bunch of other people are off meaning we're spread a bit thin. It's very nice of them, and I've told them not to worry about it if it's really impossible. But I don't really know what's happening next week now. Also my boss said he'd arranged cover for me about ten minutes after I asked him on Thursday, at which point he could have just emailed me quickly. But he didn't.
The news at the moment is equal parts terrifying and hilarious, but at least people are angry about it I guess.
