    In my younger days I witnessed this conversation

    Guy was basically Brent (if you know you know) for a huge project. So on the 2st of Dec our boss phoned him and said he had 4 weeks to take before jan 1st. Brent’s responce was cool see you next year and was told no I can’t let you do that

    We just looked at eacother in total amused confusion

      Was it me? Because I had that conversation back in '10 or '11. I ended up taking most of it off then took off the rest after the project “off the books” (but with an email paper trail because I’ve been burned before).

        Maybe. Did you move to Germany a couple years later?

          Sadly I did not. I have visited but I was only there a few weeks to have beer and bratwurst.

          I’m starting to think that there are a lot of managers who demand the impossible.
