With Labor Day coming up some businesses will be closed. We are actually open 24/7 with reduced hours/skeleton and we are on a rotation. Does anyone have difficulties taking time off on/around the holidays?

Most of the time I don't really have a problem taking time off around the holidays because I always put my PTO in like 6 months in advance and they go by who asks first. There have been times that we were short staffed and I couldn't take my time off but most of the time that isn't the case.

That’s me too! I give all my updates for PTO in the beginning of the year. I was never like this before as I never took time off but as I got older I realize that burnout is real and we are entitled to time off.

Definitely. In our line of work, I feel like it's always been difficult to take off time during the normal times people are on holiday. I guess I don't mind it, since I'd rather take a vacation on a holiday that is not a national holiday to avoid crowds, etc. So that's the silver lining I guess
