My line manager refused my annual leave to take care of my sick father. I have kept him in the loop regarding the treatments my father is going through just incase I need to take some time off which I would use my annual leave for and prep my teams ahead of time so everything within the business is covered and running smoothly before I take the time required away from the business.

It's off school property and there will be a bar (thank god), for context.

I made a mistake at work yesterday and my boss was being super mean about it. How do I move past this?

Thinking of switching employers. Do you think bigger retail stores (the ones that have several locations) are easier or harder to work at than little hole-in-the-wall grocery stores (which is all I've ever done)?
