Below I have posted verbatum an email exchange with our HR department at work. The names have been changed to protect the innocent, but do I really have ask for permission from people like this?:facepalm:

Hi again,

I was only going to take the one afternoon off, but if I could have both it
would be fantastic!

And yes, I have cleared it with those around me.

Thanks again for the idea.

Ciao, Woody.


'Hi,

* Do you want a half day on both days? i can book it have you cleared it with
everyone you need to ask?

She is an idiot. You spelled her name correctly as YYVONNEL, she then changed it to YYVONNE. Dumbo.

I hope you're deducted a full days leave for being 'clever'.

That'll learn ya.

The email ping pong, and subsequent telephone conversation, got even better! See below

Yyvonne?

From what I can see on the holiday log, you have only booked me one afternoon
off, not both?

From a very confused Woody.......


Telephone conversation – Yyvonne : I think I got confused, I read Friday and Aug 2nd when I read the email last night, I only worked it out this morning.
Wood : Yyvonne, I only sent the email this morning.............

Is your next post going to be

Yyvonne: As you seem to have so much time on your hands to post on a football website and send me emails, I'm going to recommend that your two half days are turned into permanent leave?.

Woody: Oops
