    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).

          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.
