His boss simply responded: “Mate, can’t stress enough, your leave is cancelled, we just can’t do it. I’m sorry.”
At this point, Noel’s patience ran out, and he informed the boss that he would be taking his leave immediately – and may not come back.
He wrote that he would be thinking about whether he wants to return to a company that “doesn’t promote boundaries.”
Throughout the TikTok video, Sanz praised the employee for his measured responses, whilst criticising the boss for his conduct.
He captioned the post: “As a boss, you can’t just cancel your teams leave, especially when it’s booked so far out.”
In the comments, many couldn’t believe how the boss had acted and suggested some blunter responses they’d have sent themselves. One person wrote: “Response should have been. ‘You’ll need to find 2 new hires. Regards from Bali.” A second agreed: “I would have replied, Hi Nick, take this as my resignation. Would not have even entered into a conversation with the boss.” “Quick fix – Boss has to tell Jenny not to resign because they are too busy and need time to find a replacement,” someone else joked. Others had their own experiences from their working lives, with one person writing: “The owner of the company I work for constantly texts me on weekends and public holidays, I get it his business but the guy doesn’t work and I do.” Another recalled: “A new company bought out the one I used to work for and they wiped out all of our PTO and I had a trip planned and they told me I couldn’t go. I quit.” Read next:@theoutsourcingexpert As a boss, you can’t just cancel your teams leave, especially when it’s booked so far out. #badboss #staffburnout #toxicculture #poormanagement #greatboss #bebetter #tbd #teamsbydesign #outsourcing #virtualassistants #adminsupport #varecruitment #adminassistant #remotesupport #propertymanagementsupport #lettingsupport #salesprogression #virtualassistantphilippines #howtooutsource #besttaskstooutsource #eliminaterepetativetasks #delegateadmintasks #outsourcingtothephilippines #unbusy #tasksyoucanoutsource #realestatevirtualassistant #businessowner #realestateagencyboss #propertymanager #realestateagent #pmbusinessowner #propertymanagerbusinessowner #propertymanageraustralia #propertymanageruk #propertymanagernewzealand #uk ♬ original sound - Michael Sanz -Outsourcing Tips
