We work to live, not the other way around. It's difficult to find an occupation that fulfills our ambitions and desires. When we finally find that one individual in the workplace who is friendly and supportive, it might be difficult, to put it mildly, to let go.
A furious software developer who works for an organization that offers 'unlimited PTO' shares his story below. The Original Poster (OP) has been organizing an amazing, once-in-a-lifetime international trip. Before starting the preparations, he made sure senior management gave all the required approvals. To his astonishment, they not only approved but actively encouraged vacation time.
For this reason, OP was taken aback when he learned that his manager had been replaced. He was worried about how his long and expensive vacation would be received by the new boss. Given the situation, everything appeared to be going well at first, but when OP was summoned into the office for an urgent meeting to discuss his upcoming trip, things rapidly deteriorated.
Having said that, be sure to read the story below if you're interested in learning what was said at the meeting and whether or not OP ultimately took his much-anticipated vacation! When you're finished, don't forget to read the story of the soccer coach who cleverly complied with the demands of the other team, enabling his team to play on the superior field the entire season!
