if my compensation includes paid time off, I am taking it. my notifications are not requests when the date is weeks or months out. it is informational only.

i do not and never have accepted blackout day etc.

i’m honest with this during the hiring process and it’s, honestly, worked out just fine. especially if you frame it as a part of forward thinking communication and the manager is trying to pretend they know what they are doing.

If communicated and part of the deal, great. I personally think that an employment benefits both parties. And with the mentioned curtisyz that works well.

For example, I leave early for appointments, in the last weeks we had some troubles, so dinner for the hole family was on the employer, a while week of takeouts.

So, if my employer tells me that my vacation colides with a project, I am certain that he checked every possibility, and we try to find solutions, like interruptijg the vacation for a day and taking part in meetings from my hotel room.

And if I can not trust my employer enough, then I move on. I am in the lucky position that the stuff I do, most people can't.
