    Do some people actually get these messages? It sounds almost illegal. I get emails from management moaning at me for not using my annual leave and reminding me to take them before they reset.

      Sometimes managers do guilt trip.

      Shitty manager: “Oh you’re taking a few days off to go to a funeral? Now Sarah has to work overtime… :-(”

      A dumb employee would then try to reduce your PTO time to make it work, because they’re too stupid to realize that it’s the manager’s responsibility, not theirs.

      Oh, and the manager is paid significantly more than them.

      Your leave resets? That sounds illegal.

      I’ve worked in a small company’s small team of 3 devs before, it would not have been great for the company if two or all of us went on a holiday at the same time.

    My job is IT. Staffing is your job.

    Translation: We’re extremely short staffed, so we are shaming our employees into sacrificing their vacation

    Sounds like a management problem to me.

      The trouble is that Management’s only job seems to be turning their problems into our problems. Or maybe it’s just the only thing they’re good at.

    “that’s a shame, you should have considered it when you last downsized the workforce. I’ll be back in a month”

    Sounds like a planning issue on their side. Where I live, it’s expected that some periods are just less busy because people like to take off those weeks.
