Couple plans week-long vacation, only for husband's boss to deny his PTO, he blames wife for his poor planning: ‘He used all his PTO from taking random days off’

Anyone with a standard full-time, 5-9 job knows that planning a vacation takes months in advance. Not only because of the usual tasks, like booking the flight and finding a hotel, but also because you have to ensure your workplace will actually let you leave.

Saving up your PTO is a weird mental space to find yourself in. Knowing that you have days off waiting to be used, but saving them up for a vacation that is months away. It's not fun, to say the least.

The husband in the story below would likely agree with this statement, mostly because his PTO usage might force him to cancel the vacation he had planned with his wife. He didn't plan in advance, didn't keep track of his PTO, and now he is one day short of the long-anticipated vacation. His boss now refuses to approve the time off, and the husband refuses to admit that this is all his fault.

Blaming his wife for his fumble might not be the best solution, but that is what he is going for. Will that help save the vacation? Keep scrolling to read the full story and let us know what you think in the comments below.
