Today, I lost my job for taking an unauthorized vacation. I just got married and requested time off for the wedding and honeymoon months ago; it was approved then. They forgot, and then got angry because I didn't remind them. I did remind them, the day before I left. FML

I'm so sorry about your job. Hopefully, it will be realized it was a mistake. Check and see if there was ANY record of your request and authorization. Maintain your records accordingly! I do wish you the best on your new journey in marriage!

do you have some sort of leave system where leave gets recorded? then you can prove you had it booked and if they refuse to give you your job back you can report them for unlawful termination and, if it comes to it, sue them.

Sounds like you got a pretty good law suit

they probably meant like 2 weeks ahead of time.. like ohh I'm super excited for my honeymoon next week or something... ydi for not being more stoked

It's a shame your work place is so out of order.
