Hello All,

I am currently interning at one of the Big 4's for the Summer. However, I received an email to go to EY's 2022 Futures Conference from July 26th to 29th. Would this be a good reason to call off work or would it look bad? Should I just decline the invitation so I don't have to call off work on those days?
