Here it's the CTO and VPs ruining what was once a great place to work. I have great coworkers, but everyone is sad all the time lately.

Not coworkers, but an insufferable boss for sure.

I am definitely the coworker that's ruining my job.

Yep. I still miss it too this day, I would've been running the shop by now if I had stayed, but I might also could've died from a heart attack at 28 from the stress, so there's that

I took time off to help out a friend whose baby was in the hospital after being shaken by the sitter. I put in my leave, my boss assured me they'd take care of it, and then off I went. Got back and it had never been approved. Spoke with my boss (to make sure I got charged properly for it) and they just canceled it and said not to worry about it. Lot of shit bosses out there; I've been lucky enough to have several really good ones.

Co-workers make the job. 90% of work is dealing with those around you. Some people make it harder than it has to be.

If you’re in the US, still need to take time, and have a medical professional to consult, you may be able to use FMLA.

Quit a job 2 years ago that, in my 2nd year there, they encouraged me to take and approved a 14-day LOA for my honeymoon. I was fine using only PTO. But my final year there I was told to not even bother submitting the request for a leave i actually needed, because they just weren't approving any leave. This was 2021. I quit 5 months later

More often than not, people quit people.

I worked in a morgue as pick up. Rough job, shit hours and pay. Some okay people but honestly you spend too much time confined and it's hard to get along.
But I was performing a necessary function of society, and doing my best to do so with kindness. I think that is worth it. But the manager is only met twice decided that we all had to wear formal suits to a physical labor job. Meaning that I would have to overhaul my wardrobe and wear a suit outdoors in the 100 and up Summer months.

Found a job working overnight with no physical labor, sparse customer interaction and a ton of downtime. Making an extra $2 an hour.
It's so fucking stupid.

Sorry, sometimes synonyms are not completely clear to non-native speakers: Manager prevented you from quitting in such difficult times, or manager didn't allow you to take time off?
OnlyPositiveFavourites
"my leave" in this context means "my annual leave" or "my carers leave"

Didnt allow me to take time off, in his words "Team our attendance is failing , So I wont be approving any leaves

Sounds like a typical useless beureaucrat with zero empathy or intelligence. I've had those. Definitely left a couple of places because of them.
