Today, I submitted a vacation request to my manager and it was approved. I came back from lunch and was informed that I have been let go. FML

@4. Just because its called a vacation request doesn't necessarily mean you are taking a vacation. I was going out of state for my grandfathers funeral. My manager approved the time off. The pink slip came from a little higher up apparently. I'm sure it was just a matter of bad timing in the end but either way I can't say that I ever saw it going down that way.

hahaha, "oh, sure, sure, take all the time you want..."
