No annual leave left.. Options?

[TrueBlueTerrier]

Are you serious.

The stage procedure is still massively generous.

It is compared to others I have worked under. However, if they catch you pulling a sickie without good reason, and they have or can get evidence, then its a short trip to P45 land via a Gross Misconduct case.

Asking for leave, not getting it and then by pure chance going sick on the same day, that's bound to cause even the dimmest dim to start asking questions.

Yes of course, i agree.

That is why i never ask if i think there's the slightest chance it may be fully booked (you can usually guess those weeks).

I still say that if you find yourself at stage 3 then you have been very silly.

Wave some cash about.
See if there are any takers.

That's a bit sexist there FT, although, I don't mind if people want to stuff money into my g-string..............I'll be in the naughty room tonight

Who could forget the night on the pole when you had your g-string on back to front and nobody noticed..............in fact one wag said it looked like there was a string hanging loose

Slip one of your mates a few quid and get your round covered...

Indeed. Common practice here.
