Title: Summer Vacation?
Post by: hensleyll on June 13, 2012, 12:11:06 pm
Should You Feel Obligated To Explain The Time You Have To Take Off From Work?

It doesn't feel like a vacation when you are homeless most of the time.

NO! It's your own personal vacation time. You don't need to disclose any details if you don't want to.

Used to be i think they had sick leave and vacation and longterm illness and stuff like that bu t now it's all gropued under PTO or ATO or that kind of thing, so if comapnies do that, then they don't have a right to know why you are taking off time

I don't think anyone should have to explain but sometimes if people work in close quarters or a smaller company then it's "expected"...meaning if you don't "tell" then others act offended and will give a cold shoulder to you for shutting them out.  :sad1:  Gosh a "private vacation" sounds lovely right now.  :thumbsup:  Impossible but absolutely lovely for sure....

No but I usually tell people if I'm going somewhere just in casual conversation.

You don't have to share what you plan to do with your time off with others if you don't want to, but I do provide a minimal input to be at least be sociable.

I don't think its anyones business but yours, what you do with your time off.  If you want to share fine, but don't feel like you have to

You don't have to tell anyone, but usually just talking with co-workers it comes up anyway.  Usually that is no big deal, my time off is not a big secret.

Yeah that always seem to happen you tell one co-worker and when you leave and people started asking questions that one co-worker tells everybody. I really don't care most of the time I just spend time with family or just relax so if they want to know about that it is on them.
