I can’t complain too much, it’s the only option I have so far, but the amount of work I do is really too much. At first I even blamed myself, getting everything done in time was difficult for me so I thought I wasn’t a good worker. I really don’t... — read more

I was told if you want to take off a month or more all you have to do is fill out the: "take a break form" and turn it into your tl. My tl told me recently that I have to wait until April to fill it out. What is the truth????
