This person's boss seems way too obsessed with what she's doing in her spare time. More specifically, her boss just cannot let her take any time off without bugging her constantly!
Some managers are so obsessed with keeping their workplace running that they start treating the workers like they're robots instead of human beings. Robots never need a break, but humans do. Robots have no feelings, but people can be bothered by incessant demands from their bosses. That's why many companies provide their employees paid time off (PTO) so that the employee can take a vacation without worrying about money. It's a nice way to say, "Thanks for all your hard work, we see and appreciate all you're doing." It's really a win-win situation: the employee gets to chill out and come back refreshed, and instead of dragging their feet, they're back to the workplace with a much happier attitude. Maybe no one told that to u/Pinkyrye's boss, but he certainly knows it now!
This is one of those r/AmItheA****** posts that actually led someone to change their life. After feedback from commenters telling the original poster to take the issue to HR, she did. Luckily for her, she had plenty of evidence in writing that the boss was continually pestering her during her time off.
After that, read about another employee who got back at their boss: this person discovered an "interesting detail" in their strict boss's plan.
