Has anyone gotten approval for Christmas PTO? - Old part-timer


Posted: Nov 19, 2010

Of all the MQ employees here scheduled to work on Saturdays, has anyone been approved to have off Christmas Day?  I put in my request exactly 60 days ahead of time (since we can't do it before that) and have yet to hear anything.  My CCM, who is pretty good about responding to e-mails, has not responded to me when I questioned whether I've been approved.

So, my question is, has ANYONE gotten the OK to take off Christmas?

 

 

Yes, my Christmas PTO - was approved.

I'm happily working Thanksgiving in exchange.

I never ask off for ANY other holiday! - Old part-timer

I work Memorial Day, July 4, Labor Day, Thanksgiving and New Year's. Christmas is the only one I ask off and I'm a little annoyed at still not hearing anything one way or another.

same with me - and I agree

My CCM knows that I work every other holiday in order to have Christmas off. I'd be annoyed too if I hadn't heard one way or another. Good luck to you!

Wish Paysheets Would Come Out For Approval Now. Sm
Dec 15, 2014

I can hardly sit here to work wondering how much money I'm going to lose from last week. Before: average 10,000 lines of VR/week @0.413 per line = $413 PLUS weekly incentive averaging $100+/week = $513/week which I can live with. Last week - noting how many reports were ripped by FIESA, figuring without QC/QA scores - 10,000 lines, now 5000 lines x 0.07 = 350.00 with no weekly incentive = I NEED A NEW JOB. ...
