How do I respond when an employee asks to extend vacation days while on vacation?
Employee asked for Monday off for vacay. Approved. Then, Monday evening, she called me to ask for Tuesday off. She is an employee who has done this before, giving reasons that have to do with her son and his father spending more time, etc.etc. I'm all for family time, but feel that this is distruptive - especially because she is a receptionist and someone has to fill in. I am inclined to say, OK, this time. But need to explain what happens when this type situation arises.. . Perhaps I've answered my own question?
