My entitled managers take away my vacation time, claiming that there's a new rule in their upcoming

0:05.2

handbook that denies me the four days that I'm owed. But after doing some research and talking with other

0:10.8

coworkers, I realize that they are lying through their teeth.

0:14.0

So I decide to get some revenge by suing them and winning my court case, resulting in them

1:06.4

management said I had no additional paid vacation time.

1:09.8

I reviewed our online handbook, gathered my requested and approved time off, and checked my paystumps to verify the paid vacation days that I'd taken thus far.

1:18.0

I then presented to management all of my research. My direct manager then said that he checked and apparently according to them I didn't have

1:25.3

four additional vacation days. Well that wasn't good enough so I asked him to afford it to his
