I was got it all done, well most of it, the final 1/4 I got all my parts completed by about 4pm today and I needed manager approval to push my change and no one was around from network engineering or management to approve
At least I got to leave on time at 6, but sucks that I was told it was all important and to get it all done and then it seems no one cared. I blame my boss for it, he even confirmed this morning that the final 1/4 was necessary and he'd have all the approvals lined up for it.
Regardless, before I left after I did an awesome job, I proposed my vacation schedule to my manager for the rest of the year which he said works as he would rather me not take a full week off since we have like no one on our team atm. And this schedule has me rolling over the max 5 days allowed.
Next week I am working Monday and Tuesday (25-26)
The following week I am working Tuesday - Thursday (3-5)
the following week I am doing a 6 day work week as I have to go to Denver and come home on Saturday (9-14)
Then I am working Tuesday and Wednesday (17-18)
and then I dont return to work until January 2nd
so essentially one full hard week of work left this year.
I initially was planning one more vacation trip this year but Im going to hit my United gold status with that Denver trip (50k miles this year, my highest yet
) and spire elite status with IHG when I stay one more night in philly for the Greta Van Fleet concert in December. So I have no excuse to dish out money for a vacation, I'll be chilling at home during my time off and relaxing as someone before I left today told me I work too hard, probably true.
