My company gave me 30 days of PTO +5 days I carried over (permitted in the contact) + 1 floating holiday

I had many issues with my boss trying to get a 3.5 week vacation approved 6 months in advance. I had to threaten with escalation to HR for him to approve them

If I stay, will we be short staffed? Is the difference between staffed, short staffed, and extremely short staffed just a margin of one? Managers will manage.

“That’s a management problem to solve, am I being promoted?”

At any job you are all a family …

… the thing is, no one ever said that this was a messed up chaotic, alcoholic, dysfunctional family that can’t get it’s act together.

Sounds like you staffed poorly. You’re bad at your job.

I really want to know where this is from

How very non political.
