Apr 18, 2020 at 23:55 comment added Joel Etherton I agree with @Erik. Approving vacation time takes minutes out of a day even if needs to be evaluated for efficacy or reviewed against the team for impact. This behavior is just an indicator of a poorly organized manager not fulfilling their obligations. You should bring this up with this manager directly. Assume it is just forgetfulness or carelessness. Bringing it up with this person directly may achieve the result you're looking for. If it doesn't, send an email to his manager (cc him) and state that things are not timely and responsiveness has not followed.

Apr 17, 2020 at 9:42 comment added Lilienthal "This resulted in me cancelling my leave" At whose request? Couldn't you have just taken that leave under the assumption it would be approved? (This won't fly in all companies of course!)
Apr 17, 2020 at 9:25 comment added Chris By cancelling the leave, do you mean you just went to work because it was not approved or you stopped the request in the system? It might me helpful to keep the expired request to create a paper trail, else one could claim you're causing unnecessary work by requesting leave you not really want to take.

Apr 17, 2020 at 8:45 comment added Bernhard Döbler Did you talk to Jon in person?
Apr 17, 2020 at 8:43 comment added Erik Has Jon responded to why he's being so slow and what you should have done instead? Approving your requests is basically part of his job, so it sounds like it's him failing at doing his job, busy or not.
