vacation time from work

Did you girls let your jobs know yet about the time you need off for your wedding? i don't know if it is too early to put in request for leave time..i might not even be at the same job by august (i've been job hunting) what do you all think? I will need alittle more than two weeks!

I am not getting married til Nov. and I already gave my dates (I will need about 3 weeks).

They weren't thrilled but they have scheduling to do so they needed to know as far in advance as possible.

I'm taking the two weeks after my wedding off and nothing before. My old manager knew before she left so when we eventually get a new manager I'll let her know. The person I sit next to is getting married in May and she will be taking a two-week honeymoon too.

We had to have our vacation requests in 2 weeks ago for next year. I actually have had my time off for my wedding for about a month now. Some people who are invited asked for the day off as soon as I sent them a STD! This place is crazy with time off..

I look at this way -- it is my time. I praying i don't get sick or need any other days off next year because I am banking them all, carrying over 5 days from this year. Spreading it out is more convienent for them but tough!
